A heavy, angular sans with faceted, chiseled corners and mostly straight-sided construction. Strokes are uniform in weight with squared terminals and frequent triangular notches and clipped joins that create a hard, mechanical silhouette. Counters tend toward squarish shapes (notably in O and 0), and several glyphs incorporate cut-ins or stepped apertures that emphasize a carved, modular feel. Overall spacing and widths vary by character, producing a lively rhythm while maintaining consistent cap height and a sturdy baseline.
Best suited for short-form display typography such as posters, headlines, title cards, logos, and packaging where its faceted structure can be appreciated. It can also work for game UI labels or tech-themed graphics when set at sufficiently large sizes and with generous tracking to preserve the inner cuts.
The font reads assertive and engineered, with a retro-industrial edge that suggests machinery, signage, or arcade-era display lettering. Its sharp facets and deliberate cutouts give it a slightly aggressive, techno tone, while the irregular angles add an energetic, handcrafted grit rather than a polished corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, sign-painting-meets-machined aesthetic: a compact, high-impact sans that signals toughness and technology through clipped geometry and consistent stroke weight. The recurring notches and squared counters suggest an intentional system for creating distinctive shapes without relying on serifs or decorative swashes.
Legibility remains strong at display sizes, but the tight apertures and internal notches can thicken visually when reduced. The uppercase has a particularly rigid, monolithic presence, while the lowercase keeps the same angular logic, resulting in a cohesive voice across cases. Numerals are similarly blocky and architectural, matching the overall square-counter theme.
