A heavy, block-built sans with squared proportions and a strong vertical stance. Strokes are mostly uniform and geometric, with frequent angled cuts and clipped corners that create a chiseled, stenciled-like rhythm without actual breaks. Counters tend toward rectangular forms, and many joins and terminals are sharply cut, producing a faceted silhouette. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s compact, modular construction, with a simple single-storey "a" and "g" and round dots on "i" and "j" that contrast the otherwise angular texture. Numerals follow the same hard-edged construction, giving the set a cohesive, sign-like presence.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, cover art, sports or team branding, and bold packaging or label design. It can also work for signage-style graphics where a compact, blocky texture is desirable and legibility is supported by larger sizes and ample spacing.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, athletic lettering, and bold display typography. Its crisp cuts and dense shapes feel energetic and no-nonsense, leaning toward a retro poster sensibility rather than a neutral everyday voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive, modular construction: a bold geometric base enhanced by chamfered cuts to create a distinctive industrial/athletic flavor. The consistent, hard-edged detailing suggests a focus on display use where silhouette and texture are the primary communicators.
The face builds strong word shapes through pronounced verticals and tight interior apertures, creating a dark, compact color that holds together well at large sizes. Diagonal notches and chamfered corners add distinctive character and help separate letters in display settings, while small counters suggest avoiding very small text sizes where interior openings may close up.
