A heavy, block-constructed display face built from straight strokes and clipped corners rather than curves. Counters are mostly rectangular or octagonal, with frequent chamfers that create a faceted, cut-metal look. The forms are compact and vertical, with blunt terminals, tight internal spacing, and minimal stroke contrast, producing a dense texture in words. Lowercase echoes the uppercase architecture, with simplified bowls and squared joins that keep the rhythm rigid and uniform.
Best suited to high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, athletic branding, team merchandise, badges, and bold packaging. It holds up well at larger sizes where the faceted details and tight counters remain clear, and it can add a rugged, industrial character to short phrases, labels, and number-heavy designs.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking sports markings, industrial signage, and rugged equipment labeling. Its sharp facets and dense silhouettes read as tough, no-nonsense, and slightly retro, with an athletic energy that feels ready for headlines and badges.
The design appears intended to translate stencil/jersey-like block lettering into a crisp, faceted system with consistent chamfers and squared counters. Its emphasis on solidity and repeatable geometry prioritizes visual punch and recognizability over softness or neutrality.
The distinctive corner-cut geometry is consistent across letters and numerals, giving lines of text a repeating pattern of angled notches and squared apertures. Numerals share the same chamfered construction, supporting cohesive use in scoreboards, jerseys, or bold price/ID callouts.
