A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with faceted chamfers. Counters are mostly rectangular or octagonal, with a consistent monoline weight and abrupt terminals that keep edges crisp. The rhythm is compact and sturdy, with squared shoulders and simplified joins that read cleanly at larger sizes. Lowercase forms are pared back and geometric, matching the uppercase’s planar construction for a uniform, hard-edged texture across lines.
Best suited to display work where impact and edge definition matter—headlines, posters, product labels, and identity marks. It also fits esports, sports, or tech-forward branding, as well as UI moments that call for a rugged, game-like typographic voice (titles, badges, and short labels) rather than long-form reading.
The overall tone is bold and forceful, with a distinctly engineered feel. Its sharp facets and rigid geometry suggest precision and toughness, leaning into a sporty, arcade/tech atmosphere rather than a friendly or literary voice.
The design appears intended to translate a faceted, machined geometry into a practical alphabet with consistent weight and clear, modular construction. By minimizing curves and emphasizing chamfered corners, it aims to deliver a tough, modern display look that stays legible while feeling emphatic and engineered.
Faceting is applied consistently across rounds (such as O/C/G) and diagonals (such as A/K/V/W), producing a cohesive octagonal silhouette family. The numerals follow the same clipped-corner logic, creating strong, sign-like figures that hold their shape in dense settings.
