A heavy, geometric display sans with squared-off curves and blunt terminals. Forms are constructed from broad, even strokes with frequent right-angle transitions and quarter-round corners, creating a cut-and-assembled feel. Counters and apertures tend to be compact and often rectangular or notched, with distinctive wedge-like cut-ins on letters such as B, P, and R. Lowercase echoes the uppercase structure closely, producing a uniform, mechanical rhythm and strong silhouette at larger sizes.
Best suited for display settings where its blocky geometry can read clearly: headlines, posters, event graphics, branding marks, packaging, and short signage copy. It can also work for UI or product labeling when used sparingly at larger sizes where counters remain open enough for quick recognition.
The overall tone feels industrial and retro-futurist, with a sturdy, engineered presence. Its sharp notches and compact interior spaces read as techno and utilitarian rather than friendly or handwritten, giving it a bold, poster-ready attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a modular, machined aesthetic—prioritizing bold shapes, simplified geometry, and a distinctive notched detailing that differentiates it from standard grotesks in branding and title work.
The strong black mass and tight internal spacing make interior details close up quickly at smaller sizes, while the simplified geometry stays crisp and impactful when set large. The consistent construction across cases gives headings a cohesive, logo-like stamp.
