A monoline, geometric sans with a distinctly hand-drawn, wireframe construction. Strokes maintain a consistent thin weight and form many letters from squared-off bowls, boxy counters, and sharp angles, with frequent open corners and slightly imperfect alignment that gives a sketched feel. Curves are minimized in favor of straight segments and right-angle turns, producing a modular rhythm; round letters like O appear nearly rectangular, while S and Z read as angular, segmented forms. Spacing feels even but not rigid, with small irregularities in joins and terminals that reinforce the informal, drafted character.
Best suited to display settings where its angular, wireframe geometry can be appreciated—posters, titles, packaging accents, game UI, and tech-themed branding. It works especially well for short headlines, labels, and interface-like typography rather than long-running body text.
The overall tone is techy and game-like, with a playful, DIY energy—more "drawn on a whiteboard" than engineered precision. Its square geometry and simplified shapes suggest retro-digital and sci‑fi interfaces, while the slight wobble keeps it friendly and approachable rather than cold.
The design appears aimed at creating a modular, futuristic sans with a hand-rendered edge—combining squared, schematic letterforms with a light, sketch-like stroke to evoke digital signage and playful sci‑fi styling.
Distinctive rectangular bowls and counters make the alphabet feel cohesive, but the intentionally simplified construction can reduce conventional readability at smaller sizes. The numerals follow the same squared, segmented logic, giving a unified system for UI-style labels, headings, and short strings.
