A sharply faceted sans with chamfered corners and planar cuts that replace curves with straight segments. Strokes are heavy and largely monolinear, producing strong, blocky silhouettes with octagonal counters in round letters like O and Q. Terminals are squared or diagonally clipped, and diagonals in letters such as K, V, W, X, and Y are steep and clean, reinforcing a rigid, engineered rhythm. Lowercase follows the same geometric system with mostly simplified, squared forms and compact apertures; numerals match the angular construction and read as modular, sign-like shapes.
Best suited to display settings where its angular construction can be appreciated: headlines, posters, event graphics, and branding marks. It also fits well in game UI, tech-themed packaging, and signage-style applications where strong, geometric letterforms improve quick recognition at a glance.
The overall tone is technical and hard-edged, evoking digital interfaces, machinery, and retro arcade aesthetics. Its crisp facets and high-impact silhouettes feel assertive and utilitarian, with a distinctly synthetic, sci‑fi flavor rather than a humanist warmth.
The font appears designed to translate a uniform geometric system into a high-impact, faceted display voice. By standardizing chamfers and suppressing curves, it aims for a mechanical, futuristic character that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
The design leans on consistent corner chamfers and straight-edge geometry, creating a cohesive “cut metal” look across letters and figures. Counters tend to be squared/octagonal and relatively tight, which amplifies density and impact in text, especially at larger sizes.
