A heavy, square-built sans with monoline strokes and sharply rectilinear construction. Counters are mostly rectangular and often partially enclosed, with frequent notches, cut-ins, and stepped joins that give many glyphs a modular, machined feel. Curves are largely avoided in favor of straight segments and chamfer-like corners, producing a tight, geometric rhythm in text. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s rigid structure, with compact bowls and short, straight terminals; figures are similarly boxy and segmented for a cohesive, grid-friendly texture.
Best suited to display applications where its angular detailing can be appreciated: game and app UI, tech-themed posters, sci-fi titles, branding marks, and bold packaging callouts. It can work for short blurbs or captions in interface contexts, but its internal notches and tight counters make it more comfortable at medium-to-large sizes than in long-form reading.
The overall tone is techno and utilitarian, evoking arcade UI, industrial labeling, and sci-fi interface typography. Its hard corners and engineered cutouts read as decisive and synthetic rather than friendly or humanist.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize impact and recognizability through a consistent square module, using cut-ins and stepped geometry to differentiate similar shapes. The emphasis is on a futuristic, engineered identity that stays highly structured across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Distinctive interior cutouts and corner trims create strong character at display sizes, but also introduce busy shapes that can thicken visually in dense text. The design maintains consistent stroke weight and a deliberate, pixel-adjacent geometry without actually being a bitmap.
