This typeface is built from straight, faceted strokes with consistent line weight and crisp, pointed joins. Curves are largely replaced by angled segments, producing triangular counters and diamond-shaped bowls in several letters. Proportions are compact with a steady cap height and a moderate x-height, while widths vary noticeably from narrow forms (like I and l) to broader, splayed diagonals (like W and M). Terminals tend to end in sharp points or clean cuts, and the overall rhythm is jagged but controlled, with clear baseline alignment and open interior spaces for a display-oriented sans structure.
This font is best suited to short, prominent text where its angular construction can be appreciated—headlines, poster typography, title cards, and branding marks. It also fits themed applications such as game interfaces, album artwork, or event graphics that want a runic or techno-fantasy atmosphere. For long-form reading, its faceted silhouettes may be more effective as accent typography than as body text.
The overall tone feels rune-like and ceremonial, with a distinctly modern edge. The sharp geometry and carved-in-stone silhouette suggest fantasy and mythic signage as much as it suggests sci‑fi interfaces. It reads as bold, enigmatic, and slightly aggressive, with a crafted-symbol quality rather than a neutral everyday voice.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary display sans that swaps curves for planar facets to create a symbolic, rune-inspired voice while staying within familiar Latin letter structures. The consistent stroke weight and disciplined geometry aim for strong stylistic cohesion across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, prioritizing impact and theme over neutrality.
Letterforms frequently rely on angled construction for familiar shapes (notably in S, G, and Z), and round letters are reinterpreted as polygons, giving text a consistent “inscribed” texture. The figures follow the same faceted logic, with pointed angles and simplified, linear construction that matches the alphabet. Spacing appears relatively even in running text, though the strong diagonals create an intentionally spiky texture at smaller sizes.
