A condensed, all-caps-forward sans with straight stems and consistent stroke weight, built from chamfered, faceted corners that replace most curves with clipped, octagonal shaping. Counters are compact and angular, terminals end bluntly, and joins stay clean and mechanical. The lowercase follows the same rigid construction, with simplified bowls and tight apertures, creating a steady vertical rhythm and a high, uniform presence across lines. Numerals and capitals share the same planar geometry, emphasizing a sturdy, sign-like silhouette.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, and short phrases where its angular construction can be a defining graphic element. It also fits sports and team-style branding, product packaging, and wayfinding or labeling applications that benefit from a sturdy, engineered look.
The overall tone feels industrial and athletic, with a utilitarian, no-nonsense voice. Its faceted geometry adds a retro-tech flavor reminiscent of stenciled or equipment labeling, reading as confident and slightly rugged rather than friendly or delicate.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a straightforward sans structure into a faceted, planar system that feels engineered and reproducible. The priority seems to be strong vertical rhythm, compact width, and distinctive angular silhouettes for impactful display typography.
The design’s clipped corners create distinctive silhouettes at display sizes and help maintain clarity in tight settings. Because apertures and counters are relatively narrow, the face projects best with comfortable tracking and solid contrast against the background.
