A heavy, block-constructed display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners. Curves are largely replaced by octagonal facets and short diagonals, creating a chiseled silhouette with consistent, squared apertures and counters. Stroke widths stay even, with frequent right-angle joins and occasional notched terminals that give letters a cut-metal feel. The lowercase follows the same faceted logic as the uppercase, and the figures echo the same chamfered geometry for a cohesive overall rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titles, logos, and packaging where its angular silhouettes can read cleanly at medium to large sizes. It can also work for game interfaces or tech-themed graphics when used with ample tracking and generous line spacing, while longer paragraphs may feel dense due to the compact counters.
The faceted construction reads as mechanical and game-like, with a rugged, engineered personality. Its angular cuts and compact interior shapes suggest a techno/arcade tone that feels assertive and utilitarian rather than friendly or literary.
This font appears designed to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a sturdy display alphabet—prioritizing strong silhouettes, a machined aesthetic, and consistent chamfered detailing across the character set.
Texture becomes quite dark in paragraphs because the counters are tight and many letters share similar angular profiles; spacing and word-shapes do most of the legibility work. Distinctive chamfers on forms like O/0 and the squared bowls in B/8 reinforce a consistent, modular system across letters and numerals.
