A heavy, squared, modular sans with rigid right angles, straight terminals, and a strongly geometric construction. Counters are mostly rectangular and often small, with frequent notch-like cut-ins and step details that create a pixel/brick rhythm. The design favors broad horizontals and vertically stacked strokes, producing compact, high-impact word shapes and a mechanically consistent texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, prominent settings where its chunky geometry and notched details can be appreciated—headlines, title cards, posters, and logo wordmarks. It also fits interface labels and on-screen graphics for games or tech-themed projects, and can work well on packaging when a strong, industrial-digital voice is desired.
The overall tone is retro-digital and game-adjacent, evoking arcade graphics, early computer display lettering, and industrial labeling. Its sharp, chunky silhouettes read as assertive and technical, with a slightly dystopian sci-fi edge.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a pixel-structured, display-oriented aesthetic into a solid, print-ready silhouette while maintaining consistent modular rules. The notches and rectangular counters suggest an intention to add personality and differentiation within a strict, grid-like framework.
Distinctive internal cutouts and occasional stencil-like breaks reduce large black areas and add visual character, but they also make the face feel intentionally constructed rather than neutral. Spacing appears relatively tight in running text, reinforcing a dense, poster-like color.
