A geometric display sans with heavy, monoline strokes and broad proportions. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, producing faceted, octagonal-like bowls and terminals. Counters tend to be squarish and open, with consistent stroke weight and crisp interior corners; horizontals and verticals dominate, while diagonals appear as clean, planar cuts. Spacing feels sturdy and mechanical, and the overall rhythm is blocky with clear, modular shapes across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where its angular geometry can carry the voice—headlines, titles, branding marks, packaging callouts, and on-screen UI elements. It also works well for tech and entertainment contexts such as game menus, sci‑fi themed graphics, and industrial-style signage where a constructed, faceted look is desirable.
The faceted construction and squared geometry evoke a futuristic, engineered tone—more machine-made than humanist. It reads as technical and utilitarian, with a subtle retro-digital flavor that suggests instrumentation, industrial labeling, and sci‑fi interfaces.
Designed to translate a modular, faceted geometry into a sturdy sans alphabet, prioritizing sharp planar cuts and consistent stroke weight for a distinctly technical display presence.
The lowercase follows the same geometric logic as the capitals, keeping a uniform, constructed feel rather than introducing calligraphic variation. Numerals are similarly boxy and angular, reinforcing the font’s systematic, UI-like character.
