A monolinear, slanted sans with faceted construction that replaces curves with short straight segments, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals. Strokes stay consistent and hairline-thin throughout, with a tall, condensed feel and open spacing that keeps shapes airy. The geometry is disciplined but not rigidly uniform: widths vary by character, and many joins are slightly kinked to emphasize the planar, mechanical drawing. Uppercase forms read clean and schematic, while lowercase keeps the same angular logic with simplified bowls and a single-storey approach where applicable, maintaining a cohesive rhythm across the set.
This font works well for display typography in technology-forward contexts: UI/UX labels, dashboards, product concepts, and motion graphics where a schematic look is desirable. It can also serve as a distinctive headline or poster face, and as secondary typography for branding that wants an engineered, geometric signature.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic, like labeling on instruments, prototypes, or sci‑fi interfaces. Its wireframe lightness and faceted corners feel precise and engineered rather than expressive or warm, giving text a sleek, analytical voice.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, planar system—prioritizing a constructed, machined aesthetic over organic curves. By keeping strokes extremely fine and corners consistently clipped, it aims for a lightweight, high-tech voice that remains legible while feeling like technical lettering.
The faceting is especially noticeable in rounded letters and numerals, where corners are consistently chamfered instead of smoothly rounded. The italic slant and thin strokes make it more suitable for short runs or larger sizes than dense body text, where the delicate line weight may fade.
