A heavy, block-constructed display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Counters tend toward polygonal shapes (notably in O/0 and B), with compact apertures and firmly squared shoulders. The lowercase follows the same angular logic, producing a sturdy texture with minimal modulation and a consistent, engineered rhythm across letters and numerals. Overall spacing and forms favor solidity and legibility at larger sizes, with occasional condensed joins and tight interior spaces that intensify the black mass.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, sports and team branding, punchy logos, and packaging where a strong geometric voice is needed. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when set large enough to keep counters and apertures from filling in.
The tone is bold and hard-edged, suggesting athletic branding, industrial signage, and high-energy editorial use. Its faceted geometry reads as mechanical and no-nonsense, giving headlines a sense of strength and urgency while maintaining a clean, contemporary edge.
The font appears intended as a high-impact display face that translates the feel of carved or machined forms into a clean sans framework. By standardizing curves into chamfers and facets, it aims to deliver a consistent, recognizable silhouette that stays bold and energetic in prominent typographic roles.
The design’s chamfered terminals and notched joints create a distinctive “cut metal” silhouette, especially in diagonals and angled bowls. Numerals echo the same angular construction, with an octagonal 0 and similarly faceted 8/9 that reinforce a uniform, rugged system.
