A blocky, modular sans with squared silhouettes and crisp right-angle turns. Strokes are predominantly vertical and horizontal with occasional 45° cuts that create notched corners and chamfered terminals, producing a slightly stencil-like construction in places. Counters are mostly rectangular and tight, and the rhythm is driven by strong vertical stems and open, segmented bowls; curves are largely avoided in favor of faceted geometry. Spacing reads somewhat uneven by design, with some glyphs taking on compact widths while others feel more extended, reinforcing a constructed, grid-based feel in text.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, game or sci‑fi UI treatments, and logotypes where its geometric construction can be appreciated. It also fits short-form labeling on packaging or tech-themed graphics, especially when used at medium to large sizes with generous tracking.
The overall tone is futuristic and utilitarian, evoking digital interfaces, arcade hardware, and industrial labeling. Its sharp corners and segmented forms give it a coded, engineered personality that feels energetic and slightly aggressive rather than friendly or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver a constructed, machine-made sans that prioritizes a distinctive, grid-forward silhouette over neutral text economy. Its faceted corners and segmented strokes aim to signal technology and futurism while maintaining a consistent, modular system across letters and numerals.
Distinctive details include square dots and punctuation, frequent corner notches, and angular joins that make letters feel assembled from straight components. At smaller sizes the tight counters and segmented horizontals can visually close up, so it reads strongest when given room to breathe.
