A heavy, geometric sans with pronounced chamfered corners that replace curves with straight planar cuts. Strokes are uniform and dense, producing a compact silhouette with squared counters and angular joins throughout. The forms feel constructed from octagonal modules, with consistent corner clipping on bowls and terminals and minimal stroke modulation. Spacing reads tight and sturdy, and the overall rhythm is punchy and highly graphic, especially in capitals and numerals.
Best suited to display roles where impact and shape character matter most: headlines, posters, titling, logos, and sports or esports branding. It also fits game UI, badges, packaging callouts, and short labels where the angular, modular construction can carry a strong identity. In longer passages, its density and sharp geometry are more effective for brief blocks of text than extended reading.
The tone is tough and utilitarian, with a sporty, scoreboard-like immediacy and a retro arcade flavor. Its faceted geometry conveys strength and efficiency rather than warmth, giving text an assertive, engineered presence. The angular cuts add a subtle techno edge that feels action-oriented and attention-grabbing.
The font appears designed to translate a rugged, engineered aesthetic into a clean sans framework by systematically faceting curves and soft corners. Its intent is to deliver high-impact letterforms with consistent angular logic that reproduces well in bold applications such as signage, team marks, and screen-ready display text.
The design relies on repeated corner chamfers to unify the set, which makes letters and numbers feel like they belong to the same sign-making system. Openings and counters stay fairly rectangular, helping maintain clarity at larger sizes while emphasizing a hard-edged, stenciled-by-machine impression.
