This typeface is built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets that create octagonal counters and terminals. Strokes stay consistently heavy, giving the forms a dense, poster-ready color, while the overall construction remains clean and geometric. Uppercase letters read as sturdy, squared silhouettes; lowercase maintains the same angular logic with simplified bowls and sharply cut joins. Numerals follow the same chamfered system, producing compact, sign-like figures with strong edge definition.
Best suited to short, high-contrast applications such as headlines, branding marks, team or equipment graphics, labels, and poster typography where the angular silhouette can do the work. It can be used for brief UI labels or signage-style messaging at larger sizes, especially where a tough, technical voice is desired.
The faceted geometry and hard corners convey a no-nonsense, engineered tone—confident, rugged, and slightly militaristic. It also carries a familiar athletic/varsity flavor through its blocky presence and high-impact rhythm, making it feel suited to competitive and utilitarian contexts.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, machined aesthetic into a straightforward sans framework, using chamfered corners to create a distinctive identity without adding ornamental detail. Its consistent faceting suggests a focus on impact and recognizability across letters and numbers.
The design relies on repeated chamfer angles for cohesion, which creates a consistent texture across mixed-case text. In longer settings the dense weight and frequent corners can feel busy, so spacing and size will strongly influence readability and comfort.
