A geometric sans built from straight strokes and crisp corners, with occasional rounded arcs that read like quarter-circles rather than true curves. Many forms feel constructed from modular segments, leaving small notches and open joins that create a slightly stencil-like, engineered texture. Proportions are compact and boxy with squared counters (notably in rounded letters and numerals), and diagonals appear sparingly and with a rigid, drafted quality. Overall spacing and rhythm are consistent, producing a clean, grid-minded color that stays legible while retaining a distinctly synthetic construction.
Works best for short to medium-length settings where the modular details can be appreciated—headlines, brand marks, product names, and graphic layouts. It also suits interface-style labeling and signage where a technical, system-like voice is desired. For long reading, larger sizes and generous leading help keep the crisp corners and internal breaks from feeling crowded.
The tone is distinctly techno and game-adjacent—clean, mechanical, and futuristic without becoming decorative. Its segmented geometry suggests instrumentation, sci‑fi interfaces, and digital systems, giving text a cool, engineered voice that feels modern and slightly retro-computer at the same time.
The design appears intended to translate a constructed, grid-based aesthetic into a functional sans: recognizable letterforms shaped by modular geometry, with strategic cuts and squared counters to evoke technology and industrial design while staying broadly readable.
Several glyphs incorporate deliberate breaks or inset corners, which adds character at display sizes but can introduce a busy sparkle in dense paragraphs. The alphabet’s mix of squared bowls with occasional smooth arcs creates a recognizable signature that reads as designed rather than purely utilitarian.
