A heavy, modular sans with predominantly squared geometry and softly rounded outside corners. Strokes are monoline in feel but articulated with deep notches, cut-ins, and rectangular counters that create a constructed, almost machined silhouette. Curves are minimized and translated into stepped forms, producing angular bowls and squared terminals. Proportions favor a large x-height and compact apertures, with occasional vertical slit counters (notably in letters like B, M, N), giving the set a distinctive internal rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where impact and a technical, constructed flavor are desired—posters, headlines, titles, branding marks, and on-screen UI for games or futuristic themes. It can work in short blocks of text at larger sizes, but the compact counters and dense color suggest avoiding small body copy.
The overall tone is bold and mechanical, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and arcade-era display typography. Its crisp cutouts and block forms read as confident and utilitarian, with a retro-tech edge rather than a neutral contemporary voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a fabricated, modular aesthetic, using squared forms and characteristic cut-ins to create a recognizable voice. Its consistent notching and rectilinear counter shapes suggest an aim toward a system-like, industrial display sans for bold graphic applications.
Counters tend to be small and rectangular, so the texture in paragraphs becomes dense and dark. Many glyphs use inward bites and notched joins that create strong, repeatable motifs across the alphabet, helping the design feel systematic and intentionally engineered.
