A heavy, angular display face built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Counters and bowls tend toward octagonal shapes with cut-in corners, producing a distinctly mechanical silhouette. Strokes are generally uniform with sharp terminals; joins are tight and geometric, and the overall rhythm is compact with sturdy, squared-off forms. Lowercase echoes the same faceted construction, with simple, upright stems and minimal modulation across the set.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, logos, and branding systems that benefit from a hard-edged, industrial voice. It also fits labels, packaging, and signage where a rugged, attention-grabbing presence is desired; for longer passages, larger sizes help preserve clarity.
The font communicates a tough, engineered tone—part blackletter-adjacent in atmosphere, but executed with a modern, machined geometry. Its sharp corners and clipped curves read as forceful and utilitarian, evoking signage, equipment markings, and high-impact branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, modern take on gothic and stencil-like cues using a strictly geometric, faceted construction. By standardizing chamfers and straight segments across the character set, it aims for a consistent, high-impact texture that reads as technical and durable.
The faceting is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive, emblem-like texture. In text, the strong dark color and busy corners make it feel most comfortable at larger sizes where the angular details remain distinct.
