A geometric, monoline sans built from straight segments and crisp corners, with curves consistently replaced by planar facets. Strokes keep a steady thickness and end in blunt terminals, giving the letterforms a clean, constructed feel. Proportions run broad with generous horizontal presence, and the rhythm stays airy due to open counters and simplified joins. Distinctive polygonal bowls appear in letters like O/Q and in several numerals, reinforcing the cut-stone, multi-sided motif across the set.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and branding where the faceted construction can be appreciated at larger sizes. It works well for sci-fi and tech-forward visuals, game/interface styling, event posters, and short packaging callouts where a geometric, constructed voice is desired.
The overall tone reads futuristic and game-like, with a schematic, techno personality that feels slightly playful rather than austere. Its faceted geometry suggests digital interfaces, sci-fi worlds, and engineered objects, while the roundedness is intentionally avoided to keep the voice sharp and synthetic.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted aesthetic into a readable sans by substituting curves with straight, angled planes while keeping stroke weight consistent. It prioritizes a distinctive, futuristic silhouette and strong graphic identity for display-led typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same angular logic, creating strong stylistic cohesion in mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, with especially distinctive multi-sided forms for rounded digits, which can become a focal point in display settings.
