A heavy, monoline sans with sharply faceted construction in place of curves. Corners are consistently chamfered into short diagonals, producing an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette across rounds and joins. Proportions are compact with sturdy verticals and squared terminals, while counters stay open enough to keep letterforms readable at display sizes. The lowercase follows the same planar logic, with simplified, geometric bowls and a single-storey feel where applicable; figures and capitals carry a uniform, sign-like rhythm.
Works best in display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—sports branding, team or club apparel, poster headlines, event graphics, packaging, and bold logotypes. It can also suit UI labels or game/tech-themed graphics when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is tough and purposeful, suggesting engineered shapes and athletic signage. Its hard facets and squared geometry give it a slightly retro, arcade-or-uniform flavor while still reading as modern and utilitarian.
Likely intended to deliver a robust, high-impact sans with a distinctive faceted motif, replacing curves with planar cuts to create a mechanical, badge-like aesthetic that holds up well in bold display typography.
The faceting is applied very consistently, creating a cohesive texture in words and a distinctive silhouette in rounded characters like O, C, G, and 8. The design emphasizes straight strokes and clipped corners, which can add strong personality but may feel dense in long passages at small sizes.
