A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared proportions and hard right angles throughout. Strokes are mostly monolinear with crisp corners, frequent rectangular cut-ins, and occasional chamfered/angled terminals that add a mechanical rhythm. Counters tend to be boxy and compact, with small apertures and tight internal space, giving letters a dense, stamp-like presence. The lowercase largely echoes the uppercase architecture, emphasizing a modular, pixel-adjacent geometry and creating a strong, uniform texture in text.
Well suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, poster titles, branding marks, product packaging, and environmental signage where a rugged geometric voice is desired. It can also support game/tech themed graphics and display typography that benefits from a compact, blocky texture.
The overall tone is utilitarian and forceful, evoking industrial labeling, arcade-era display type, and techno signage. Its squared silhouettes and cutout details feel engineered and functional, with a slightly game-like, retro-digital edge.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact with a modular, machine-cut look—prioritizing bold silhouettes, consistent geometry, and a controlled, industrial texture for display-driven settings.
The design reads best at larger sizes where the interior cut-ins and tight counters remain clear; in smaller settings the dense shapes can visually merge. The numerals and capitals present especially strong rectangular silhouettes, producing a rigid, poster-forward rhythm across headlines.
