This typeface is built from straight, monoline strokes with sharply squared terminals and slab-like serifs that read as small horizontal caps. Letterforms are notably rectilinear and geometric, with occasional asymmetries and angled joints that give the alphabet a constructed, almost modular feel. Curves are minimized in favor of flat sides and right angles; bowls and counters appear more box-like than round, and several glyphs use open or inset corners that create a slightly stenciled, engineered rhythm. Spacing in the sample text appears even and readable, while the overall drawing stays crisp and spare.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where its constructed geometry can be appreciated—posters, branding, packaging, and editorial pull quotes. It can also work for interface labels, diagrams, or technical-themed graphics when a distinctive, squared serif voice is desired.
The overall tone feels technical and architectural, like lettering from drafting templates, early computer graphics, or schematic labeling. At the same time, the idiosyncratic, box-built shapes add a playful retro quirk that keeps it from feeling purely utilitarian. The result is precise and deliberate, with a distinctive display character.
The design appears intended to reinterpret slab-serif structure through a rigid, square-built geometry—prioritizing clarity, repeatable stroke logic, and a distinctive retro-technical flavor. Its consistent monoline drawing and flat terminals suggest a deliberate, template-like system meant to stand out in display settings while remaining legible in continuous text.
Uppercase forms present strong verticals and prominent top/bottom horizontals, while lowercase maintains the same squared construction, producing a consistent, system-like texture in paragraphs. Numerals and punctuation follow the same hard-edged logic, reinforcing the font’s grid-based personality.
