A hard-edged, rectilinear sans with squared curves and crisp 90° turns throughout. Strokes remain consistent and heavy, producing compact apertures and boxy counters (notably in forms like O, D, and 8). Terminals are flat and abrupt, with occasional cut-in notches and stepped joints that emphasize a constructed, modular feel. The uppercase is tall and compact, while the lowercase mirrors the same geometric logic with simplified bowls and minimal curvature, maintaining a tight, engineered rhythm in text.
Best suited to display settings where its blocky geometry can read cleanly: headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, packaging callouts, and short UI labels in game or tech contexts. It can work in brief passages at larger sizes, where the squared counters and tight openings remain legible and the strong texture becomes a stylistic asset.
The overall tone is mechanical and digital, evoking industrial labeling, arcade-era display typography, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its rigid geometry and dense color create an assertive, no-nonsense voice that reads as technical, controlled, and slightly retro-futuristic.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact, geometric voice with a deliberately constructed feel—prioritizing crisp edges, modular shapes, and a machine-made texture that signals technology and industrial precision.
Diagonal shapes (A, K, V, W, X, Y) keep straight-sided forms rather than smooth joins, reinforcing the faceted look. Numerals follow the same squared construction, with strong internal geometry and clear, high-contrast counters at display sizes.
