A heavy, block-constructed sans with chamfered corners and faceted, near-octagonal curves. Strokes are monoline and dense, with large counters and squared apertures that keep shapes open despite the weight. The lowercase is tall and sturdy, with short extenders and a compact, upright rhythm; terminals tend to end in blunt cuts or angled facets rather than true curves. Figures and capitals share the same geometric logic, producing a consistent, sign-like texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where strong silhouettes matter: headlines, posters, sports and team identities, badges, packaging, and bold logo wordmarks. It can work for short UI labels or signage where a punchy, industrial tone is desired, but the dense weight favors larger sizes and shorter runs of text.
The faceted geometry reads as rugged and assertive, evoking varsity lettering, machinery markings, and bold retro display type. Its chunky shapes and crisp angles also add a slightly game-like, playful toughness, making it feel energetic and attention-grabbing rather than refined.
The design intent appears to be a sturdy, highly legible display face that replaces curves with planar facets to create a distinctive, athletic-industrial voice. The consistent chamfering and monoline construction suggest it was drawn to deliver impact, uniformity, and a recognizable geometric texture across letters and numerals.
The angled cuts on letters like C, G, O, Q, and S create a distinctive polygonal silhouette at both large and medium sizes. Spacing appears intentionally tight and compact, reinforcing a strong, poster-friendly typographic color.
