A compact, geometric sans with sharp planar facets and chamfered corners replacing curves. Strokes read mostly monoline with squared terminals and stepped, polygonal joins that create a crisp, pixel-adjacent rhythm while remaining outline-smooth. Counters are generally rectangular and tight, apertures are small, and overall proportions are condensed with a tall, vertical stance. The lowercase keeps a sturdy, constructed feel, and the numerals follow the same cut-corner logic for consistent texture in lines of text.
Best suited to short display copy where the faceted construction can read clearly—headlines, branding wordmarks, packaging, and UI/wayfinding labels with a technical theme. It can also work for sci‑fi or industrial titles, captions, and numeric-heavy layouts where consistent, hard-edged figures matter.
The font conveys an engineered, utilitarian tone—precise and mechanical rather than friendly. Its faceted silhouettes suggest retro-futurism and technical labeling, giving text a purposeful, instrument-panel character.
Likely designed to translate modern sans structures into a cut-metal, chamfered aesthetic, emphasizing straight segments, crisp corners, and modular construction. The goal appears to be a distinctive technical voice that stays legible while foregrounding an angular, engineered form language.
The design maintains a consistent corner-cut motif across rounds (C, O, G) and diagonals (V, W, X, Y), producing a distinctive zig-zag sparkle at smaller sizes. Its tight counters and angular details create strong identity in display settings and can feel dense in long paragraphs.
