A compact, high-impact sans with sharply cut corners and frequent triangular notches that create a chiseled, almost stencil-like silhouette. Strokes stay largely uniform in thickness, while terminals and joins are aggressively angled, producing hard-edged counters and abrupt interior breaks. The forms are condensed and tall, with tight apertures and a rhythmic pattern of vertical stems and clipped cross-strokes that reads cleanly at display sizes. Numerals and capitals carry the same carved geometry, giving the overall alphabet a cohesive, poster-forward texture.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logos, and other branding moments where a hard, angular voice is desirable. It also fits game titles, album/track art, and packaging that wants an industrial or retro-tech feel. Use in short bursts or larger sizes to preserve the crisp cut details and maintain readability.
The tone feels industrial and confrontational, with a retro arcade and metal-signage edge. Its crisp, cut-in details suggest machined lettering and dramatic title design rather than softness or neutrality. The overall impression is bold, energetic, and slightly ominous.
The design appears intended to deliver a striking, condensed display voice using uniform stroke weight and sculpted, angular cutouts to differentiate letterforms. Its consistent notch-and-wedge motif suggests a deliberate attempt to evoke carved or machined signage while keeping a simple sans construction.
Spacing and shapes favor strong verticality, which helps create a dense, graphic word image. Distinctive notches and wedge terminals add personality but can reduce clarity in long passages or at small sizes, where the interior cut-ins may visually fill in.
