A geometric sans built from straight segments and chamfered corners, replacing curves with faceted, near-octagonal forms. Strokes keep a consistent thickness and terminate in crisp, angled cuts, creating a clean, engineered rhythm across the alphabet. Counters are compact and polygonal, with squared-off bowls and notched joins that read clearly at larger sizes. Proportions run broad, with generous horizontal spread and open spacing that emphasizes the font’s planar construction.
Best suited to display applications where the faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, poster titles, packaging, tech branding, and interface labels. It also works well for short bursts of text such as buttons, meters, or sci‑fi themed captions, where the wide stance and crisp angles help maintain clarity.
The faceted construction and hard corners give the typeface a technical, machine-made character with a distinctly digital, arcade-era feel. Its angular silhouettes evoke instrumentation, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling while staying calm and systematic rather than expressive or handwritten.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, planar system—prioritizing sharp cornering, consistent stroke logic, and a futuristic industrial texture. Its broad proportions and polygonal counters suggest a focus on distinctive silhouette and thematic voice over long-form reading comfort.
Diagonal strokes appear stepped and segmented rather than smoothly slanted, reinforcing a modular, grid-built impression. Round characters such as O/0 and C/G rely on multi-sided geometry, and several terminals show small angled “bites” that add a mechanical, cut-metal flavor. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, maintaining consistent texture with the uppercase and lowercase sets.
