A heavy, block-constructed sans with crisp chamfered corners that replace curves with straight facets. The letterforms are built from uniform strokes and squared counters, producing an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette across both cases. Proportions are compact and sturdy with broad shoulders and flat terminals; diagonals are minimized and when present feel stepped or beveled rather than smooth. Numerals and capitals read especially solid, with consistent interior openings that stay rectangular and tightly controlled for a dense, punchy texture.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or esports branding, and bold product packaging. It can also work for labels, badges, and UI moments where a rugged, geometric display voice is desired, while longer reading will be more demanding due to the dense, angular texture.
The faceted geometry gives the font a tough, engineered tone—part industrial signage, part sports/varsity grit, with a hint of retro arcade display. Its hard angles and dense blackness project strength and urgency, making it feel assertive and utilitarian rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to translate a sturdy, industrial display look into a consistent alphabet by substituting curves with planar facets and maintaining strong rectangular counters. The goal is maximum visual punch and recognizability at a glance, with a distinctive chamfered motif that stays consistent across letters and numbers.
Text settings show a tightly packed, rhythmic pattern where repeated chamfers create a distinctive “cut corner” sparkle along tops and shoulders. The lowercase echoes the same modular construction, keeping a cohesive voice between cases and reinforcing a mechanical, stencil-adjacent feel without obvious breaks in the strokes.
