A heavy, all-caps–friendly display sans built from hard-edged, faceted strokes. Curves are largely replaced by chamfers and planar cuts, producing octagonal bowls and stepped joins. The rhythm is tight and geometric, with rectangular counters, squared terminals, and a generally monoline feel that reads as carved or machined. Lowercase maintains a tall, sturdy structure with minimal differentiation from the uppercase, keeping the overall texture dense and strongly modular.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks where its faceted geometry can read cleanly and project strength. It also fits packaging, merchandise, and sports or event branding that benefits from an engineered, hard-edged texture. For longer passages, it will work most comfortably at large sizes with generous spacing.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a sporty, industrial energy. The faceted cuts and block construction suggest toughness, signage clarity, and a retro-tech sensibility rather than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a rigid, faceted construction that mimics cut metal or stenciled lettering, prioritizing visual strength and recognizability over subtle typographic nuance.
Large black shapes and small internal apertures create strong figure–ground contrast, which enhances impact at headline sizes but can make tight spacing and counters feel closed at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same squared, cut-corner language, reinforcing a consistent, emblematic look.
