A heavy, faceted sans with sharply chamfered corners and irregular, hand-cut geometry. Strokes are built from chunky polygonal slabs with clear internal notches and cut-ins that create a rugged silhouette and a slightly uneven rhythm across the alphabet. Counters are tight and often rectangular, and several letters use angular terminals that lean into a techno, machined look rather than smooth curves. The texture reads dense and high-impact, with small details (cuts, wedges, and apertures) providing clarity at display sizes while compressing at smaller text.
Best suited to display applications where the bold, angular forms can breathe: posters, title cards, esports and game UI, branding marks, and packaging fronts. It also works well for short, emphatic headlines and badges, where the notched shapes read as intentional detail rather than noise.
The tone is forceful and high-energy, evoking industrial signage, sci‑fi interfaces, and arcade-era lettering. Its edgy cuts and compact counters add a gritty, confrontational attitude that feels action-oriented and game-ready.
The design appears intended to deliver a hard-edged, techno-industrial voice with maximum presence. By using chamfered corners and carved-in apertures, it aims to feel machined and aggressive while remaining legible for large-format lettering.
Uppercase forms are especially monolithic and sign-like, while the lowercase keeps the same faceted language, producing a consistent, all-caps-friendly system. Numerals follow the same chiseled construction, with angular joins and tight interior space that emphasize punch over delicacy.
