A heavy, geometric display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with octagonal facets. Stems and horizontals keep a consistent thickness with minimal contrast, creating a monolithic, block-like texture. Counters are compact and often polygonal, while terminals are typically chamfered, giving letters a machined, cut-from-plate feel. Proportions vary by glyph, and the overall spacing reads open enough for headlines but dense in longer lines due to the bold color and tight internal shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logos, and wordmarks where the faceted silhouette can read clearly. It can also work for sports branding, esports/gaming UI labels, packaging callouts, and signage where a strong, industrial voice is desired. For long paragraphs, the dense weight and tight counters suggest using larger sizes and generous leading.
The faceted construction and hard edges project a tough, engineered tone with a retro-tech undercurrent. It feels at home in competitive, game-like contexts—confident, punchy, and a bit aggressive—while still remaining clean and systematic rather than distressed or hand-made.
The letterforms appear designed to translate rounded shapes into planar cuts, delivering a bold, modern-industrial look that stays consistent across the alphabet and figures. The intention seems to be maximum visual presence and a distinctive angular silhouette suitable for display-led branding.
The design’s identity comes from consistent corner cuts and squared geometry across both uppercase and lowercase, with simplified, sturdy forms that prioritize impact over delicate detail. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, keeping the set visually unified for titles and callouts.
