A heavy, faceted sans with octagonal construction and consistent chamfered corners that replace curves with straight planes. Strokes read largely uniform, creating a sturdy, machined texture, while counters are squared-off and compact for a dense overall color. Uppercase forms are wide and stable, and lowercase follows the same geometric logic with short, squared terminals and simplified bowls. Numerals echo the same beveled geometry, with rounded shapes (0, 8, 9) rendered as angular rings and notched openings.
Best suited to headlines, logos, badges, and short bursts of text where the faceted silhouette can read large and bold. It works well for sports and esports identities, industrial or tactical-themed graphics, game UI accents, and packaging that benefits from a rugged, engineered voice.
The letterforms convey a tough, engineered tone—confident, utilitarian, and slightly retro-digital. The crisp facets and blocky silhouettes feel at home in competitive, high-impact contexts where clarity and force outweigh softness or refinement.
The design appears intended to translate a machined, beveled aesthetic into a clean sans framework, emphasizing impact and recognizability through repeated chamfers and squared counters. Its geometry prioritizes strong silhouette and a cohesive, angular rhythm for display-forward typography.
Diagonal cuts are used as a primary signature across corners and joins, producing a rhythmic pattern of repeated angles throughout text. Apertures tend to be tight and the interior spaces small, which boosts punch at display sizes while making dense paragraphs feel dark and compact.
