A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp, faceted joins. Counters are small and mostly rectangular, giving letters like O, Q, and 8 an octagonal, stencil-like solidity without actual breaks. Vertical stems dominate, terminals are squared or diagonally chamfered, and diagonals (as in N, V, W, X) are rigid and geometric. The lowercase echoes the same architecture with simplified bowls and tight apertures, while figures are similarly boxed-in and high-impact, with strong, flat-sided forms and minimal interior space.
Best suited for large-scale applications where strong silhouette and high contrast against the page matter: team or athletic branding, posters, punchy headlines, logos, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short UI labels or wayfinding-style sign text when a compact, industrial look is desired.
The overall tone is hard-edged and forceful, evoking industrial signage, sports numbering, and utilitarian machine labeling. Its sharp facets and dense black presence feel modern and technical, with an assertive, no-nonsense rhythm that reads as rugged and performance-oriented.
The design intention reads as a geometric, facet-driven display sans that maximizes density and punch while keeping letterforms straightforward and highly structured. By standardizing chamfered corners and minimizing curved geometry, it aims for a tough, engineered aesthetic with clear, repeatable shapes.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and compact, creating a sturdy, poster-like texture in text. The faceted construction is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing a cohesive, geometric voice that favors impact over softness.
