A compact, angular sans with faceted strokes that replace curves with chamfered corners and short diagonal cuts. Stems are monoline and sturdy, with predominantly vertical and horizontal construction and occasional sharp diagonals in joins and terminals. Round forms like C, O, and G appear as polygonal bowls, producing a crisp, engineered silhouette. Spacing and letterfit feel slightly irregular due to varied sidebearings and asymmetric shapes, which adds a hand-cut, modular rhythm in words.
Best suited for short display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, titles, logos, packaging marks, and event or music posters. It can also work for UI labels and in-game typography where a hard-edged, techno-industrial voice is desired. For long passages, it benefits from generous size and spacing to maintain comfortable texture.
The overall tone reads technical and utilitarian, with a retro-digital edge. Its hard corners and geometric reductions evoke signage, machinery labeling, and arcade-era display typography rather than soft, humanist text color. The sharp faceting gives it an assertive, constructed personality.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, cut-from-planes construction into a straightforward sans structure, prioritizing sharpness and distinctive silhouettes over neutral text color. By using consistent chamfers and polygonal curves, it aims to feel engineered and modular while remaining familiar in basic letter architecture.
Uppercase forms are especially bold and emblematic, while lowercase introduces more open counters and simplified structures that keep text readable but still distinctly angular. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic (notably 0 and 8), reinforcing a consistent, stencil-like geometry without true breaks.
