A sharply geometric sans with faceted, chamfered joins that replace curves with short straight segments, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals throughout. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with squared proportions and a wide set that creates a strong horizontal footprint. Lowercase forms lean toward single-storey constructions with simple, engineered shapes, while diagonals (K, M, N, W, X, Y) are crisp and consistent. Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, with a polygonal 0/8/9 and a clean, segmented 2 and 7, reinforcing a modular, constructed rhythm.
Best suited to display applications where its angular construction can carry a strong identity—headlines, posters, branding marks, product labels, and UI accents for tech or game-oriented visuals. It also fits wayfinding or industrial-style signage where a constructed, stencil-adjacent feel is desirable, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is technical and hard-edged, evoking industrial labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and engineered hardware aesthetics. Its faceted geometry reads confident and functional, with a slightly retro-digital flavor reminiscent of arcade or vector-era display design.
The design appears intended to translate a mechanical, faceted geometry into a clean sans framework—prioritizing a consistent chamfered construction, bold presence, and a distinctive polygonal silhouette for contemporary tech and industrial-forward communication.
The consistent chamfer motif creates a strong visual system across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving the type a cohesive ‘machined’ personality. The wide stance and blocky forms increase presence in headlines and signage, while the many corners can add visual texture in longer settings.
