A condensed, monoline sans with an angular, faceted construction that replaces curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes stay even in weight, with squared terminals and frequent chamfers that create octagonal counters in letters like O and Q. The overall rhythm is tall and narrow with generous internal spacing for its width, and a consistent geometric logic across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Diacritics and dots appear as small, square-like marks, reinforcing the hard-edged theme.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logotypes, and branding that benefit from a distinctive, engineered silhouette. It can also work well for signage, product labeling, and interface labels where a compact width and crisp geometry help maintain clarity at moderate sizes.
The font reads as technical and engineered, evoking industrial labeling, instrumentation, and display typography from retro-futurist and sci‑fi contexts. Its sharp facets and condensed stance give it an assertive, schematic tone while remaining clean and orderly.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans voice with a strong geometric signature, using facets and chamfers to suggest precision and modernity without relying on contrast or ornament. It prioritizes a consistent constructed system that remains readable while feeling distinctly mechanical.
Capitals are notably uniform and vertical, while the lowercase keeps a simple, constructed feel with minimal modulation and tight joins. Numerals follow the same chamfered geometry, producing a cohesive set for data-heavy settings and signage-like compositions.
