A geometric sans built from hard, planar cuts, replacing curves with chamfered corners and octagonal counters. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with crisp terminals and frequent diagonal facets that create a machined, modular rhythm. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with squarish bowls and counters and minimal roundness, while the figures are similarly blocky and segmented for a consistent set. Overall spacing reads sturdy and compact in feel, with clear silhouette definition at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and bold brand statements where the faceted silhouettes can read clearly. It also fits sports and team-style graphics, product packaging, and tech or industrial themed layouts that benefit from a rugged, constructed look. For longer text, it will be most comfortable in short blocks or emphasized callouts rather than dense reading environments.
The faceted construction gives a mechanical, engineered tone that feels sporty and tech-forward. Its sharp corners and block forms suggest strength and speed, reading like lettering used on equipment, uniforms, or industrial labeling. The effect is confident and no-nonsense rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary voice by translating a sans skeleton into a faceted, cut-metal style. Its consistent chamfers and angular counters suggest a focus on visual punch and a cohesive display texture across letterforms and numerals.
Distinctive chamfers appear on many joints and corners, and several glyphs use clipped diagonals to imply curvature. Counters tend toward rectangular and octagonal shapes, reinforcing a consistent, fabricated aesthetic across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The design favors impact and shape recognition over softness, making it most convincing when given room to breathe.
