A heavy, block-built sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are thick and uniform, with squared terminals and mostly rectangular counters; the round letters (O, C, G) read as octagonal forms rather than true circles. The lowercase maintains a tall, sturdy structure with small apertures and simplified bowls, creating a compact, high-impact texture in text. Numerals follow the same geometric logic, with sharply clipped corners and dense interior spaces that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display applications where a strong silhouette matters: headlines, posters, event graphics, sports or team-style branding, packaging, and bold wayfinding. It can also work for short subheads or labels where a compact, rugged tone is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and workmanlike, combining a sports-headline punch with an industrial sign-paint sensibility. Its faceted geometry and tight counters give it a rugged, no-nonsense voice that feels bold, direct, and slightly retro.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact through simplified geometry and repeatable facet cuts, translating rounded shapes into straight-edged forms for a tough, engineered look. The consistent chamfer language suggests an intention to feel sturdy, energetic, and highly legible at larger sizes.
The design relies on consistent corner chamfers and straight segments, producing a strong grid-like rhythm and clear silhouette recognition at display sizes. In longer lines, the dense interior spaces and angular joins create a dark, compact color that prioritizes impact over delicacy.
