A heavy, tightly built display sans with an octagonal, chamfered construction that replaces curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are uniformly thick with squared terminals and consistent vertical stress, producing a rigid, engineered texture. Counters tend to be compact and angular, and round letters (like O, C, G) read as faceted polygons rather than true curves. Spacing is straightforward and dense, creating a strong, billboard-like rhythm in all-caps as well as in the compact lowercase and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and identity work where high-impact letterforms are needed. It also fits sports and esports branding, industrial or wayfinding signage, and packaging or merchandise that benefits from a rugged, engineered look. The faceted geometry reads most clearly at display sizes where the corner cuts and compact counters can do their work.
The overall tone is tough and functional, suggesting machinery, signage, and competition branding. Its sharp corners and chunky massing convey confidence and impact, while the faceted geometry adds a retro-digital and sports-oriented edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a condensed footprint, using faceted geometry to create a distinctive alternative to rounded grotesques. It prioritizes strong silhouette, consistent stroke weight, and angular detailing for bold branding and attention-grabbing titles.
Distinctive wedge-like joints and clipped corners give the forms a consistent “cut metal” feel. Numerals share the same polygonal logic, helping figures stand out with the same hard-edged emphasis as the letters. The sample text shows a highly uniform texture at larger sizes, where the angular details remain prominent and contribute to a bold, graphic voice.
