A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions and chamfered corners that replace curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are consistently thick and uniform, with tight apertures and short, decisive terminals that create a dense texture in text. Geometry is predominantly rectilinear, but rounded forms are suggested via faceted octagonal contours, producing a hard-edged rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging panels, and wayfinding or labeling where a bold, angular voice is desirable. It can also work for sports-inspired graphics and industrial-themed branding, especially when set with ample tracking or in all caps to emphasize its blocky structure.
The overall tone feels tough and workmanlike, with an industrial, scoreboard-like immediacy. Its sharp facets and dense weight read as confident and no-nonsense, leaning toward rugged and mechanical rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with minimal softness, translating traditional sans skeletons into a faceted, machined aesthetic. By using chamfers in place of curves, it aims for a sturdy, graphic presence that stays consistent across letters and numbers.
In the sample text, the font maintains strong presence at larger sizes, where the chamfers and angled joins become a defining detail. The numerals follow the same faceted logic, giving figures a consistent, signage-oriented character alongside the letters.
