A heavy, geometric display sans with an octagonal, chamfered construction and crisp right-angled joins. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with frequent internal cut-ins that create a stencil-like, segmented feel. The rhythm is tight and blocky, with short terminals, squared bowls, and a generally engineered, modular texture that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to large-size applications where its angular cut corners and segmented interiors can be appreciated: bold headlines, poster typography, logotypes, and packaging fronts. It also fits sports branding, product marks, and punchy UI labels where a compact, technical, high-impact texture is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, machinery, and bold retro signage. Its angular cuts and dense blacks read as assertive and functional, with a sporty, arcade-like edge that feels contemporary while nodding to older technical aesthetics.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a rigid, machined geometry and a distinctive notched/segmented detailing that separates it from plain grotesques. The letterforms prioritize a strong silhouette and an engineered vibe, aiming for memorable display presence rather than quiet, extended reading.
Lowercase forms largely echo the uppercase geometry, reinforcing a unified, all-caps-style presence in text. Numerals match the same faceted logic, producing a strong, uniform color in headlines; at smaller sizes the tight counters and internal notches may become more prominent than letter differentiation.
