A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, giving most glyphs an octagonal, faceted silhouette. Curves are largely replaced by chamfers and sharp joins, with consistent stroke thickness and tight internal counters that stay legible at large sizes. The uppercase is compact and block-like, while the lowercase follows the same geometric logic with simplified bowls and squared terminals; several forms feel intentionally constructed rather than handwritten. Numerals match the system with strong, cut-off corners and sturdy proportions, producing an overall rhythm of hard edges and dense black shapes.
Best suited to large-size applications where its faceted construction and dense weight can be appreciated: headlines, posters, team and event branding, logotypes, and bold packaging. It also works well for labels, badges, and UI moments that need an industrial, game-like punch, especially when set with generous tracking and ample whitespace.
The face projects a tough, high-impact tone that reads as sporty and mechanical, with a retro sign-paint and athletic-jersey energy. Its sharp facets and compressed apertures add urgency and grit, making it feel bold, no-nonsense, and built for attention rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to translate a chiseled, planar geometry into a practical, all-caps-friendly display alphabet—delivering maximum impact with minimal curves. Its consistent chamfers and engineered structure suggest a goal of creating a modernized, stencil/jersey-adjacent look that remains clean and scalable.
Faceting is applied consistently across the set, creating a cohesive texture in words and a distinctive zig-zag edge pattern along diagonals. The small counters and strong verticals can cause darker color in paragraphs, so it visually favors short bursts of text over long reading.
