A heavy, geometric sans with chamfered corners and faceted, almost octagonal construction in place of curves. Strokes are uniform and blocky, with frequent 45° cuts that create sharp terminals and polygonal counters in letters like O, C, G, and Q. The proportions read broad and stable, with straight-sided bowls and squared arches; diagonals are crisp and mechanical, and curves are consistently rationalized into planar segments. The lowercase follows the same modular logic, with simplified forms (single-storey a and g) and compact, squared dots on i/j, producing a cohesive, engineered texture.
Best suited to display work where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, esports or gaming interfaces, tech event graphics, and logo/wordmark development. It also works well for short labels and UI elements that want a hard-edged, futuristic tone, especially when set with generous tracking.
The overall tone is unmistakably futuristic and machine-made, evoking console UI, arcade cabinets, and sci‑fi titling. The sharp facets and dense black shapes give it a forceful, utilitarian energy that feels assertive and technical rather than friendly or humanist.
The design appears intended to translate a strict geometric grid into a high-impact, faceted letterform system, replacing traditional curves with planar cuts for a crisp, digital-mechanical feel. Consistent chamfers and polygonal counters suggest an aim for a cohesive sci‑fi/industrial voice across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The faceting creates distinctive inner notches and angular joins that add character at display sizes, while the tight, geometric counters can appear dense in long text. Numerals share the same cut-corner motif, reinforcing a consistent, system-like voice across alphanumerics.
