A heavy, all-caps-forward display sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar cuts and diagonal facets. Counters are small and mostly rectangular, with uniform stroke weight and a tight, compact internal rhythm. The letterforms lean on squared shoulders and notched terminals, giving rounded shapes like O/Q/C/G a clipped, octagonal silhouette; diagonals are sturdy and simplified. Spacing reads moderately tight in text, and the overall texture is dense and high-impact without relying on contrast.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, and short bursts of copy where the bold, faceted silhouettes can carry. It also fits game UI, tech or industrial labeling, and packaging titles that benefit from a rugged, geometric voice. For long passages, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where the small counters and tight rhythm stay clear.
The faceted geometry and compact massing evoke utilitarian signage and retro-digital aesthetics, with a tough, engineered feel. It reads assertive and functional, suggesting machinery, hardware, and game-like interfaces rather than editorial refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, planar geometry: a bold, no-nonsense sans with chamfered corners that reads like cut steel or pixel-era signage. Its consistent faceting and squared proportions suggest an emphasis on strong silhouettes and a distinctive industrial/retro tone.
Distinctive chamfers recur consistently at outer corners and joins, creating a coherent “cut metal” motif across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase largely mirrors the uppercase construction, reinforcing a uniform, stenciled-block impression that prioritizes silhouette and impact over delicate detail at smaller sizes.
