A heavy, block-built sans with tight apertures and squared counters. Letterforms are constructed from straight strokes and abrupt angles, with frequent chamfered corners and occasional notched cuts that create a semi-stenciled, segmented feel. The geometry is predominantly rectangular, producing a dense, high-ink texture and strong horizontal presence; spacing appears compact and the interior whitespace is deliberately minimized for impact. Lowercase echoes the uppercase construction closely, reinforcing a uniform, engineered rhythm across text.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, title treatments, branding marks, packaging, and punchy on-screen UI where its mass and angular construction can read cleanly. It also works well for short labels and signage-style applications, while extended body text will benefit from generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, suggesting machinery, signage, and game-like display systems. Its hard edges and cut-in details add a rugged, gritty energy that feels bold, confrontational, and distinctly synthetic rather than humanist.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through compact, rectilinear forms and distinctive cut-in details. By combining chunky silhouettes with chamfers and notches, it aims to evoke a fabricated, industrial character while maintaining a consistent, all-caps-friendly display voice.
Many glyphs use small rectangular counters and clipped joins that can close up at smaller sizes, so the design reads best when given room and scale. The repeated corner cuts and internal slits act as a signature motif, helping differentiate otherwise monolithic shapes in headlines and short bursts of text.
