An angular, faceted sans with curves replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, producing an octagonal, cut-metal look. Strokes are largely monoline with crisp joins, and counters tend to be squared-off or polygonal rather than round. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s geometry, with compact bowls and notched terminals that create a consistent, modular rhythm across letters and numerals. Overall spacing feels even and utilitarian, emphasizing clear silhouettes and strong edge definition.
Best suited to display roles where its faceted geometry can be appreciated: game and app UI titles, tech-themed headlines, posters, product marks, and packaging. It can also work for short labels or signage where a crisp, mechanical aesthetic is desired, while longer text will read more strongly at larger sizes.
The font conveys a machine-made, technical tone with a retro-digital edge. Its sharp facets and rigid construction evoke instrumentation, hardware labeling, and arcade or sci-fi interfaces, reading as purposeful and engineered rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, engineered aesthetic into a clean sans structure, prioritizing geometric consistency and a distinctive faceted texture. By substituting curves with planar cuts, it aims to feel digital and industrial while staying legible in bold display lines.
Distinctive chamfers appear consistently at outer corners and at many terminals, which helps maintain a cohesive pixel/plotter-like texture without becoming fully grid-based. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, supporting a unified voice for alphanumerics in display settings.
