A blocky, geometric sans with squared bowls, flat terminals, and a distinctly modular construction. Strokes are heavy and consistent, with sharp corners and minimal curvature, giving many forms a rectilinear, almost stencil-like feel without true breaks. Counters tend to be rectangular and tightly fitted, and spacing reads compact in running text, emphasizing a dense, punchy texture. Numerals follow the same squared logic, with a boxy 0 and angular diagonals on figures like 4 and 7.
Best suited to short-form display settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and game or device-style interfaces where its angular geometry reads as intentional. It can work for subheads and UI labels at moderate sizes, but extended body text will benefit from generous sizing and line spacing due to the compact, squared counters.
The overall tone is strongly digital and machine-made, evoking arcade-era display lettering and technical labeling. Its rigid geometry and tight counters feel assertive and functional, with a crisp, engineered personality that leans more sci‑fi/industrial than neutral everyday sans.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a distinctly digital, modular aesthetic. Its consistent stroke weight and rectilinear forms prioritize a strong silhouette and a tech-forward voice over softness or traditional text comfort.
Distinctive details include squared punctuation and a generally orthogonal rhythm, with diagonals used sparingly for letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. The mix of sharp corners and closed-in apertures increases impact but can reduce readability at smaller sizes, especially in dense paragraphs.
