A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar facets that read as octagonal bowls and chamfered terminals. Stems are heavy and consistent, with compact apertures and squared counters that create a dense, high-impact texture in text. The rhythm is strongly modular: diagonals are sharp and purposeful, rounds (like O, C, G) are constructed from multi-sided segments, and joins stay crisp without any tapering or calligraphic influence. Lowercase forms are sturdy and simplified, with a notably tall x-height and short extenders that keep lines feeling tight and blocky.
Best suited to display settings where the angular silhouette can carry a strong visual identity—headlines, posters, packaging, game/UI elements, and tech or industrial branding. It can also work for short labels and wayfinding-style copy, especially at sizes where the compact counters remain clear.
The overall tone is mechanical and assertive, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and arcade-era display lettering. Its faceted construction gives it a utilitarian, engineered feel—more tactical and digital than friendly or conversational.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, polygonal construction into a practical sans for attention-grabbing typography. By systematically chamfering corners and segmenting curves into facets, it aims to deliver a consistent, engineered aesthetic that feels digital and rugged across letters and figures.
Numerals follow the same chamfered, polygonal logic (notably the 0 and 8 with multi-sided outer shapes), supporting consistent sign-like repetition. The capital set feels especially emblematic and headline-ready, while longer passages maintain a distinctive, grid-driven texture that prioritizes style over softness.
