A blocky, geometric sans with squared outlines and consistently thick strokes. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments, with corners frequently chamfered into short diagonals for a faceted, octagonal feel. Counters are rectangular and tightly controlled, apertures tend toward closed or narrow, and terminals end in flat cuts that reinforce a modular, constructed rhythm. Spacing and widths vary by glyph but maintain a uniform, grid-like texture that reads cleanly at display sizes.
This font is best suited to headlines, poster typography, logos, and short titles where its squared geometry can be a defining visual motif. It also works well for tech-themed branding, UI-style graphics, and packaging or signage that benefits from an assertive, constructed look.
The overall tone is mechanical and utilitarian, evoking digital interfaces, arcade-era graphics, and industrial labeling. Its angular, machined forms feel assertive and engineered rather than expressive or handwritten.
The design appears intended to deliver a futuristic, grid-driven sans that prioritizes strong silhouettes and a consistent modular system. Its chamfered corners and rectangular counters suggest a deliberate move away from rounded industrial grotesks toward a more digital, arcade-inspired construction.
Distinctive diagonals and clipped corners show up across both cases, giving the face a consistent “cut metal” silhouette. The numerals and capitals feel especially sign-like, while the lowercase keeps the same rigid geometry for a cohesive system.
