A geometric sans built from squared forms with subtly rounded outer corners and largely closed apertures. Strokes are predominantly straight and orthogonal, with occasional diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) and crisp, squared terminals. Many glyphs use inset rectangular counters (e.g., A, B, 8) and boxy bowls, creating a modular, grid-aligned texture. Proportions skew horizontally, and the character set mixes compact forms with a few broader constructions, producing a slightly irregular but intentionally mechanical rhythm. Contrast appears through selective thinning in some joins and interior strokes versus heavier outer stems, rather than through calligraphic modulation.
Works well for display typography in tech branding, game titles, UI headings, dashboards, and packaging where a modular, engineered look is desirable. It can also suit wayfinding-style labels or speculative/retro-futurist graphics, especially when set with generous tracking and used at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic, evoking digital displays, industrial labeling, and retro-computing aesthetics. Its squared geometry and engineered spacing give it a controlled, utilitarian voice with a distinct sci‑fi edge.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, constructed aesthetic into a readable sans, emphasizing rectangular counters and squared curves for a distinctly digital personality. It prioritizes visual identity and system-like consistency over traditional humanist softness, aiming for a clean, technological voice that stands out in titles and interface contexts.
Distinctive features include a squared, open C; a G with an internal horizontal bar; and a sharply angular S and Z that read like segmented signage. Numerals follow the same boxy logic, with a rectangular 0 and a slashed 0 variant shown, reinforcing an instrumentation/terminal feel. In text, the wide set and tight internal geometry create a strong, patterned color that favors display sizes over dense body copy.
