A condensed, all-caps-forward sans with strong vertical emphasis and sharply chamfered corners. Strokes are largely uniform and rectangular, with frequent wedge cuts and notches that create a faceted, almost engraved silhouette. Counters are tight and geometry is straight-sided, producing a rigid rhythm; curves are minimized and when present they read as clipped, polygonal turns. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with tall, narrow forms and pointed terminals, while numerals echo the same angular, cut-in detailing.
Best suited to short display lines where its condensed width and angular detailing can read cleanly—posters, event titling, album/merch graphics, and bold brand marks. It can also work for punchy packaging or signage where a hard-edged, authoritative voice is desired, but it is likely to feel dense in long passages or at very small sizes.
The overall tone is severe and architectural, combining a gothic/blackletter echo with a modern, engineered finish. Its sharp terminals and compressed proportions feel commanding and slightly ominous, lending a dramatic, poster-like presence. The repeated notches and wedge cuts add a retro-display flavor reminiscent of carved signage or heavy-metal titling without becoming overtly ornate.
The font appears designed to deliver a high-impact, space-saving display voice by merging a constructed sans skeleton with faceted, blackletter-adjacent cuts. The intent seems to be strong visual character and instant recognition through consistent notching and sharp terminals, while keeping the overall structure straightforward and upright for stable composition.
The design’s signature is the consistent use of triangular cuts at joins and terminals, which helps differentiate similar shapes in a tightly condensed set. The uppercase set appears especially strong and uniform, while the lowercase and figures maintain the same narrow, constructed cadence, supporting cohesive headline setting.
