A heavy, geometric sans with squared proportions, sharp corners, and consistently thick strokes. Forms are built from rectilinear segments with frequent chamfered cuts and notches that create a stenciled, cut-out impression. Counters tend to be small and often rectangular, with simplified interior spaces that keep the texture dense at display sizes. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic as the uppercase, producing a uniform, modular rhythm across mixed-case text and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, branding marks, and entertainment or technology-themed graphics. It can work well for UI labels in games or dashboards when used at larger sizes where the cut-in details and compact counters remain legible.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, with a distinctly digital, arcade-like attitude. Its hard edges and carved details evoke industrial labeling, sci-fi interfaces, and retro game typography rather than a neutral everyday sans.
The letterforms appear intentionally constructed to feel machined and modular, prioritizing punchy silhouette and a distinctive industrial/tech texture. The consistent stroke weight and repeated corner treatments suggest a display font designed to deliver strong personality and instant recognition.
The design’s small counters and angular joins increase visual impact but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes, especially in tightly set lines. The repeated notch motifs and squared apertures give the face a strong, signature texture that reads best when allowed adequate size and spacing.
