A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and chamfered corners, replacing curves with crisp facets. Counters tend toward octagonal forms, and joins are squared-off with consistent angled cuts that give letters a machined look. Proportions are expanded horizontally with generous, stable stems and short, flat terminals, producing strong silhouettes and dense texture in text. Lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with compact bowls and simplified forms; numerals are similarly faceted and highly uniform.
Best suited to display applications where its faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, posters, branding marks, product names, and entertainment or tech-oriented graphics. It also fits compact UI labels and interface motifs when a futuristic, hard-edged voice is desired.
The overall tone feels sci‑fi and engineered, like lettering cut from metal or rendered on a tactical display. Its sharp planes and squared geometry suggest speed, precision, and a digital/industrial aesthetic rather than softness or tradition.
The design appears intended to translate a planar, constructed aesthetic into a readable sans, using consistent chamfers to unify the character set and create a bold, machine-like presence. It prioritizes striking, high-impact forms and a cohesive sci‑fi tone over traditional calligraphic modulation.
In sample text, the rhythmic repetition of angled corners creates a distinctive patterning at headline sizes, while tighter apertures and blocky counters can make long passages feel visually insistent. The design is especially characterized by its consistent chamfer system across capitals, lowercase, and figures, which keeps the voice cohesive.
