A compact, all-caps–friendly serif display with monoline weight and strongly squared construction. Stems and bowls are formed from straight segments with frequent chamfered corners, giving counters an octagonal feel and producing a crisp, faceted silhouette. Serifs are short and integrated, reading as clipped terminals rather than flowing bracketed details. Proportions are tight with sturdy verticals, slightly condensed spacing, and a consistent, block-built rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display work where impact and a structured, emblematic feel are desired—sports identities, team and school materials, bold posters, event titles, packaging accents, and signage. It performs especially well in short bursts of text, such as headlines, labels, and wordmarks, where its chamfered geometry can read clearly.
The overall tone is confident and no-nonsense, with a collegiate/athletic edge and an industrial toughness. Its angular cuts and solid black presence evoke vintage signage and uniform lettering, projecting energy and authority rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to translate traditional serif cues into a hard-edged, geometric system, prioritizing solidity and legibility at display sizes. By using clipped corners and compact proportions, it aims to deliver a consistent, badge-like voice suitable for branding and statement typography.
Lowercase forms mirror the squared, chiseled logic of the caps, with simplified joins and minimal curvature. Numerals are equally blocky and uniform, designed to hold their shape at larger sizes and remain consistent alongside headline text.
