A compact, heavy sans with crisp, faceted construction that replaces curves with straight segments and chamfered corners. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a rigid, engineered texture. Many round forms (C, O, G, Q, 0) resolve into octagonal silhouettes, while terminals tend to be squared or clipped, keeping edges sharp and deliberate. Proportions are tight and vertically efficient, with straightforward geometry and a clean, closed feel in counters and apertures.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, titles, posters, and branding where its faceted geometry reads as a design feature. It can work well for signage, packaging, and interface-style labels, especially at medium to large sizes where the clipped curves and angular counters remain clear.
The face projects a mechanical, forward-leaning tone—clean, tough, and technical rather than friendly. Its angular rhythm and clipped curves evoke machinery, sci‑fi interfaces, and sporty block lettering, giving text a purposeful, no‑nonsense presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, angular sans that feels engineered and space-efficient, using planar facets to create a distinctive silhouette while maintaining straightforward legibility in display contexts.
Distinctive details include the faceted bowls and the angular joins on letters like M, N, V, and W, which reinforce a structural, assembled look. The lowercase maintains the same geometric logic, helping mixed-case settings feel consistent and systematic.
