A geometric display sans built from straight strokes, squared counters, and frequent 45° chamfers that create an octagonal, cut-corner silhouette. Curves are minimized and when present appear as clipped arcs rather than smooth bowls, giving letters a faceted, machined feel. Terminals are consistently squared, joins are crisp, and interior spaces tend toward rectangular forms, producing a sturdy rhythm with tight, blocklike spacing. The lowercase mirrors the same constructed logic as the uppercase, and the numerals follow the same corner-cut geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited to short display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, posters, game and app UI titles, product marks, and packaging. It also works well for techno-themed graphics and signage-style compositions where a hard-edged, engineered voice is desired.
The overall tone reads technical and retro-futuristic, evoking arcade cabinets, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its sharp corners and modular construction feel purposeful and engineered, lending a confident, slightly aggressive edge.
This design appears intended to translate a modular, machine-cut geometry into a readable sans, prioritizing a distinctive angular silhouette and consistent corner treatment. The goal seems to be a strong, tech-leaning display voice that stays coherent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Distinctive zigzag and notched details (notably in forms like W, X, S, and 8) emphasize the font’s constructed aesthetic and can become a prominent texture in headlines. The angular counters and clipped bowls create a strong silhouette that holds up well in bold color blocks or high-contrast settings.
