A heavy, geometric sans with squared bowls, flat terminals, and compact, block-built forms. A narrow inline cut runs through the strokes, creating a carved, dimensional stripe that stays consistent across curves and straight segments. Counters are tight and rectangular, with rounded-rectangle corners in letters like C, D, O, and U; diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Z are sturdy and emphatic. Numerals echo the same squared construction and simplified geometry for strong, uniform color in display sizes.
Best suited to impactful display settings such as posters, headlines, team or event branding, badges, and packaging where the inline detail can be appreciated. It works especially well at larger sizes and in short phrases where its dense, blocky rhythm reads as intentional.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered, evoking industrial labeling, athletic branding, and retro signwork. The inline detail adds a gritty, machined highlight that reads as energetic and loud without becoming ornate.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with a structured, geometric skeleton, while the carved inline introduces a distinctive signature reminiscent of engraved or stamped lettering. The aim is legibility-through-silhouette paired with a built-in graphic effect for branding-forward typography.
The inline carving slightly breaks up the mass of the strokes, helping large headlines feel less monolithic while keeping a strong silhouette. The design leans on straight-sided curves and boxy counters, producing a tightly packed rhythm in word shapes.
