A geometric sans built from crisp straight segments and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Strokes read largely monolinear, with sharp joins and occasional open apertures where corners are chamfered, giving counters an octagonal feel (notably in O, C, G, 0). Proportions are fairly even and modern, with simple, engineered constructions for diagonals and terminals; the lowercase maintains a clean, schematic rhythm and a single-storey “a.” Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with straight, angled terminals and polygonal bowls.
Best suited to display use such as tech branding, UI mockups, game titles, album art, posters, and short editorial headlines where its faceted construction can be appreciated. It can also work for concise interface labels or signage when set with comfortable tracking and generous size.
The overall tone is precise and synthetic, evoking digital displays, CAD-like drafting, and retro-future interfaces. Its sharp geometry and consistent corner treatment lend it an assertive, machine-made character that feels modern, slightly cyberpunk, and purpose-built for tech contexts.
The design appears intended to translate a clean sans skeleton into an angular, faceted system, preserving familiar letter structures while enforcing a strict straight-segment geometry. The consistent chamfered corners and polygonal curves suggest an emphasis on a futuristic, engineered aesthetic that remains readable in both caps and mixed-case settings.
Legibility is helped by clear differentiation between similar shapes through angled cuts and open forms (for example, the distinct geometry in G, Q, and 9). The faceting becomes a key texture at text sizes, creating a subtle sparkle along baselines and caps as the chamfers repeat across the line.
