A geometric sans built from consistent monoline strokes and hard, chamfered corners. Curves are largely avoided in favor of octagonal and rectilinear construction, producing squared counters and clipped terminals throughout. The forms emphasize straight horizontals and verticals with occasional diagonal cuts, creating a modular, engineered look with crisp joins and a steady rhythm. Lowercase echoes the same construction, with single-storey shapes and simplified bowls; overall spacing reads clean and open, with a slightly technical, grid-fit feel.
Best suited to display settings where the angular construction can be appreciated: headlines, logos, product packaging, event graphics, and tech-themed branding. It can also work for UI labels or wayfinding-style text at larger sizes, where the crisp geometry stays legible and the distinctive silhouettes add character.
The overall tone is futuristic and instrument-like, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi signage, and industrial labeling. Its sharp geometry and clipped corners communicate precision and efficiency rather than warmth, leaning into a constructed, systemized aesthetic.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, chamfered geometry into a readable sans, prioritizing a cohesive modular system and a high-tech visual signature. It aims to feel contemporary and engineered, offering a distinctive alternative to conventional geometric sans forms.
Several glyphs use distinctive diagonal notches and angular junctions (notably in forms like K, M/W, and the diagonally cut rounds), reinforcing a cohesive octagonal motif across the set. Numerals follow the same squared logic, aiming for quick recognition and consistent texture in strings.
