This typeface is built from chunky, mostly monoline strokes that swap smooth curves for crisp planar facets and clipped corners. Counters tend to be squarish and slightly irregular, with subtly varied interior angles that give letters a carved, geometric feel. Terminals are generally flat or diagonally cut, and many bowls and rounds are rendered as multi-sided shapes rather than true arcs. Overall spacing reads solid and compact, producing a dark, poster-friendly color with a lively, hand-cut rhythm.
Best suited for short to medium display settings where its angular construction can be a feature rather than a distraction—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging panels, and attention-grabbing signage. It can also work for subheads or labels when you want a strong, graphic voice, but its distinctive faceting is likely to dominate in long text.
The faceted geometry creates a tough, mechanical tone with a playful edge, like lettering cut from sheet material or carved into signage. Its slight irregularities keep it from feeling sterile, adding character that reads energetic and streetwise while still distinctly modern.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a sans structure into a cut, faceted aesthetic that stays sturdy at larger sizes. The goal seems to be high-impact readability paired with a distinctive, chiseled personality that signals modern, industrial display typography.
The design maintains consistent stroke weight and a unified angle logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, which helps it feel cohesive even with its intentionally non-round curves. Numerals and key shapes like O/Q and S lean into polygonal construction, reinforcing the carved, graphic impression.
