This typeface is built from hard, geometric forms with angular joins and frequent chamfered corners. Strokes are heavy and mostly straight, with selective thinning and cut-in notches that create a crisp, faceted rhythm across letters and numerals. Counters tend to be polygonal (notably in O/0 and Q), while terminals often end in diagonal cuts, producing a mechanical, constructed feel. The set reads as a sans with pronounced corner treatment and a compact, blocky silhouette that stays consistent between uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display sizes where the angular detailing and internal cut shapes can read clearly—such as headlines, branding marks, posters, game titles, and interface labels. It can also work for short bursts of text in tech-themed packaging or signage, where its engineered texture is an asset rather than a distraction.
The overall tone is assertive and technical, evoking sci-fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and game or hardware aesthetics. Its sharp cuts and faceted counters feel engineered rather than handwritten, giving text a brisk, high-energy voice.
The design appears intended to translate a futuristic, manufactured aesthetic into a practical sans structure, using chamfers, notches, and polygonal curves to add character while preserving clear, upright letterforms. The consistent use of angled cuts suggests a deliberate system meant to feel modular and machine-finished.
The distinctive corner notching and angled terminals create strong word-shape texture, especially in longer lines of text where the repeated cuts become a visual motif. Numerals and round characters lean toward polygonal construction, reinforcing the rigid, machine-made character.
