A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with short planar facets. Letterforms feel mostly rectilinear with squared counters and octagonal rounds (notably in O, Q, and numerals), creating a consistent, machined rhythm. Strokes are uniform and terminals are flat, with concise joins and an overall compact, stacked structure that stays clear at display sizes. The lowercase follows the same faceted logic, with simple, sturdy bowls and minimal modulation across the set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, marks, and short calls-to-action where its angular detailing can be appreciated. It works well for sports branding, product packaging, signage, and interface titling that benefits from a robust, technical presence rather than long-form reading.
The faceted construction gives a hard-edged, engineered tone that reads as utilitarian and confident. It suggests equipment labeling, athletics, and contemporary sci‑fi or game UI aesthetics—more rugged than friendly, more functional than expressive.
The design appears intended to translate a mechanical, faceted construction into a clean sans structure, prioritizing impact and stylistic consistency over softness. Its systematic chamfers and squared counters aim to deliver a distinctive display voice that remains legible and highly graphic.
A few glyphs emphasize distinctive geometry: the diagonal notch-like cuts in rounded characters, the angular spur in Q, and the pointed treatment in V/W forms contribute to a cohesive “cut metal” look. Numerals share the same chamfered approach, maintaining strong stylistic continuity between letters and figures.
