A sharply faceted, geometric sans with monolinear strokes and corners cut into small planar chamfers instead of smooth curves. Bowls and rounds resolve into octagonal-like forms, giving letters and figures a crisp, hard-edged silhouette. Proportions are compact and streamlined, with squared terminals, straight-sided counters, and a consistent, engineered rhythm that stays legible even as shapes become highly angular.
Best suited to display sizes where the faceted detail can read clearly—headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging with a technical or futuristic theme. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when a hard-edged, geometric voice is desired, but its distinctive angular texture may be visually assertive for long-form reading.
The overall tone feels technical and constructed, with a cool, sci‑fi edge. Its cut-corner geometry suggests machinery, digital interfaces, and retro-futurist styling rather than warmth or informality.
The design appears intended to translate a modern sans structure into a cut-stone, polygonal aesthetic, replacing curvature with disciplined facets while preserving clear letterforms. The goal seems to be a recognizable, sci‑fi/industrial voice with consistent geometry across the full basic set.
Distinctive faceting is carried through consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing strong texture in lines of text. The punctuation shown (notably the diamond-shaped i/j dots) reinforces the angular motif and adds a stylized, display-oriented personality.
