A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared, chamfered corners that give many forms an octagonal silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals end in flat slabs that read as engineered and rigid. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with sharp interior angles and small apertures that emphasize solidity over openness. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders/descenders, producing dense, uniform text color, while the overall widths vary by letter to maintain strong, stable proportions.
Best suited to display settings where its dense texture and angular slabs can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logo wordmarks, packaging, and bold signage. It also works well for game, tech, or industrial-themed graphics where a rugged, geometric voice is desired.
The face conveys a tough, utilitarian confidence with a distinctly retro-tech flavor. Its angular cuts and chunky slabs suggest machinery, signage, and arcade-era display lettering rather than delicate editorial typography. The tone is assertive and no-nonsense, with a playful edge when set large.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through thick strokes, squared slabs, and chamfered geometry, creating a sturdy, mechanical look that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and a uniform, high-ink presence for attention-grabbing typography.
Diagonal letters like V, W, X, and Y keep their sharp geometry but remain weighty and compact, preserving a consistent block rhythm. Round characters such as O and 0 are rendered as squarish, chamfered loops, reinforcing the font’s engineered, modular construction.
