A sharply angular, monoline sans built from straight strokes and crisp corners, with occasional diagonal joins that create a faceted, cut-metal look. Forms are predominantly rectilinear, with tight apertures and frequent use of pointed interior angles; bowls and curves are largely avoided in favor of polygonal substitutes. Strokes end in clean, hard terminals, producing a dry, mechanical rhythm with a slightly irregular, constructed feel across glyphs. The set reads as compact and disciplined, with uppercase and lowercase sharing a unified, schematic geometry rather than traditional serif or humanist modulation.
Best suited to short display settings where its angular construction can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logos, packaging accents, and on-screen UI elements for sci‑fi or cyber-themed projects. It can also work for event graphics or album art where a coded, engineered tone is desirable, but its tight apertures and stylized shapes may reduce comfort for long passages of small text.
The font conveys a futuristic, coded atmosphere—part techno signage, part runic or cipher-like display lettering. Its sharp joins and narrow, linear build feel assertive and slightly mysterious, suggesting dystopian UI, sci‑fi titling, or underground club graphics rather than everyday text.
This design appears intended to reinterpret a sans structure through a geometric, runic-leaning stencil logic—prioritizing sharp silhouettes, minimal stroke variation, and a consistently constructed system over conventional readability norms. The goal seems to be a distinctive, thematic voice that signals technology, mystery, or speculative-fiction aesthetics at a glance.
In the sample text, the tight apertures and angular counters give words a spiky silhouette that stays consistent line-to-line, while distinctive diagonals in letters like K, R, S, and Y add momentum. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, reading like simplified display figures with abrupt turns and minimal curvature.
