A heavy, monoline display face built from crisp planar facets rather than true curves. Strokes maintain an even thickness while corners break into short chamfers and sharp points, creating diamond-shaped bowls and counters in round letters. The uppercase has a rigid, geometric stance with strong diagonals and clipped terminals, while the lowercase follows the same angular construction with simplified, compact forms. Figures are similarly polygonal, with distinctive, cut-in notches and squared turns that keep the set visually consistent.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, title cards, logos, posters, and packaging where the faceted texture can read as a deliberate stylistic cue. It can also work for game UI or event branding when used at larger sizes with generous tracking to preserve the angular details.
The overall tone feels medieval-meets-arcade: assertive, hard-edged, and slightly ceremonial. Its faceted geometry evokes carved lettering and runic/blackletter echoes without becoming fully traditional, giving it a dramatic, game-title energy.
The design appears intended to translate a carved, crystalline aesthetic into a clean, monoline construction that stays bold and legible at display sizes. By replacing curves with consistent facets and pointed joins, it aims for a distinctive identity that reads as both geometric and archaic.
Spacing and sidebearings appear tuned for display, with lively, uneven silhouettes created by pointed joins and diagonal stress. The repeated diamond motifs (notably in rounded characters) provide a strong recognizable texture, which becomes especially prominent in longer lines of text.
