A heavy, block-built sans with squared proportions and strongly angular construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals resolve into flat cuts, frequent right angles, and occasional chamfered corners. Counters are small and often rectangular, giving the letters a dense, compact color. The lowercase follows the same modular geometry as the caps, with a simplified single-storey feel and a squarish rhythm that stays crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, graphic silhouette is the priority. It also fits game UI, esports or tech-themed overlays, and packaging or labels that benefit from an industrial, retro-digital voice. For longer text, the tight internal space and dense weight are more effective at larger sizes with generous line spacing.
The overall tone is bold and synthetic, evoking retro digital signage and arcade-era graphics. Its strict geometry and tight counters create a forceful, utilitarian presence that reads as mechanical and game-like rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a modular, all-caps-friendly geometry and compact counters, referencing arcade/tech lettering while remaining clean and sans in structure. Its constructed details prioritize recognizability and attitude in display contexts over subtle text reading.
Several glyphs use distinctive cut-ins and notches that suggest a stencil/constructed approach, reinforcing a pixel-adjacent, engineered texture. The numerals match the letterforms closely, keeping the same squared bowls and abrupt diagonals for a cohesive display set.
