A heavy, block-built sans with octagonal construction and consistent chamfered corners that replace curves with planar facets. Strokes are largely monolinear and orthogonal, with squared terminals and frequent beveled cut-ins that create countershapes with a mechanical, punched-out feel. Proportions are broad and stable, with wide capitals, sturdy horizontals, and simplified interior spaces that keep the silhouette crisp at display sizes. The lowercase follows the same faceted logic, using straight-sided bowls and notched joins, producing a cohesive, modular rhythm across text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or event graphics, game interfaces, and bold packaging labels where its faceted silhouettes can read clearly. It also works well for logos and wordmarks that benefit from a rigid, engineered texture.
The overall tone feels industrial and utilitarian, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of arcade, athletic, and equipment markings. Its faceted geometry conveys strength and precision rather than warmth, giving headlines a confident, assertive presence.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, machine-cut aesthetic into a coherent text face—prioritizing strong silhouettes, consistent chamfer logic, and a compact, modular rhythm for attention-grabbing display typography.
Angular counters and tight apertures emphasize a stencil-like solidity without actual breaks, and the repeated chamfers create a distinctive sparkle along edges. Numerals and capitals read especially well as compact, sign-like blocks, while small interior details (notches and bevels) add character without introducing curves.
