A monoline slab serif with crisp, mechanically drawn outlines and frequent chamfered corners, giving many curves a faceted, octagonal feel. Stems are straight and clean with short, blocky serifs that read as squared terminals rather than bracketed forms. The uppercase is narrow-to-moderate in proportion with a structured, constructed rhythm, while the lowercase stays simple and upright with minimal modulation and clear separation between bowls, stems, and arms. Figures follow the same faceted construction, with angular bends and clipped corners that reinforce a technical, sign-like geometry.
This font suits branding and display settings that benefit from a technical or retro-industrial voice, such as posters, packaging, labels, and wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short editorial headlines where a constructed slab serif texture is desired and the faceted geometry can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels engineered and utilitarian, with a subtle vintage drafting and signage character. Its faceted curves and squared endings suggest precision and order, leaning toward an industrial, architectural mood rather than a literary one.
It appears designed to blend the familiarity of a plain slab serif with a distinctive cut-corner construction, creating a sturdy, engineered look that remains straightforward in text. The intent reads as a practical display serif with a consistent geometric system for rounds, terminals, and figures.
The chamfering is a defining motif across rounds (C, G, O, Q) and numerals, creating a consistent “cut-corner” vocabulary. Spacing and proportions appear steady in text, producing a tidy texture that emphasizes structure over softness.
