A compact, forward-leaning sans with faceted, chamfered geometry that replaces curves with crisp planar edges. Strokes are thick and even, with squared terminals and consistent internal cut-ins that give bowls and counters an octagonal feel. Proportions are tall and condensed, with tight sidebearings and a steady rhythm that stays legible in both caps and lowercase. Numerals follow the same angular logic, reading like stamped shapes with clipped corners and firm vertical emphasis.
Best suited to short-form display use where impact and clarity matter—posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and bold UI labels. It also fits sports and motorsport branding, event graphics, and wayfinding that benefits from condensed width and high visual energy.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, athletic graphics, and tactical equipment markings. Its sharp facets and condensed stance create a sense of speed and urgency, while the uniform stroke weight keeps the voice straightforward and functional.
The font appears designed to deliver a rugged, engineered look with strong presence in limited horizontal space. By standardizing sharp facets and heavy strokes, it aims for fast recognition and a cohesive, stencil-like industrial flavor without actual stencil breaks.
The design relies on repeated chamfers to unify the set, producing distinctive silhouettes and slightly reduced counters at smaller sizes. The italic slant is consistent across letters and figures, adding momentum without introducing calligraphic modulation.
