A heavy, monolinear display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with chamfered, octagonal facets. Forms are compact and sturdy with squared terminals, consistent stroke weight, and minimal modulation. Counters tend toward angular shapes (notably in O/0 and 8), while diagonals in letters like A, K, V, W, X, and Y stay crisp and geometric. Lowercase is simplified and sturdy, with short ascenders/descenders and a utilitarian rhythm that favors blunt joins and cut-in notches over smooth bowls.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, merchandise graphics, and packaging where strong silhouettes matter. It can also work for signage-style applications and labels when set at moderate to large sizes to preserve the angular details.
The overall tone is tough and pragmatic, with a sporty, uniform-like presence. Its faceted construction reads mechanical and industrial, evoking stamped signage, equipment labeling, and bold headline energy with a slightly retro, arcade-adjacent edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch and clarity through a faceted, no-nonsense geometry. By standardizing corners into bevels and keeping strokes uniform, it aims for a rugged, engineered look that remains cohesive across letters and numerals in bold display settings.
The faceting is applied consistently across the set, creating a recognizable silhouette even at a distance. Numerals are especially sign-like and modular, with the 0 and O closely aligned in construction, and the 1 rendered as a simple vertical with a firm base.
