A condensed, monoline sans built from crisp straight segments, with corners treated as small chamfers that replace curves. Strokes remain consistently thin, producing an open, airy texture and a delicate rhythm in text. Counters and bowls are largely polygonal, and many terminals end in squared-off or notched corners, giving letters a plotted, constructed feel. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow; lowercase maintains a straightforward structure with similarly angular joins and a clean, restrained dot on the i.
Best suited to display roles where its faceted construction can be appreciated—titles, posters, and event graphics—as well as compact labeling such as interface headings or schematic-style captions. The very thin strokes suggest using it at moderate-to-large sizes or with sufficient contrast against the background.
The overall tone feels technical and retro-futuristic, like lettering drawn from schematic diagrams or early vector displays. Its sharp facets and minimal stroke weight read as precise and engineered rather than warm or calligraphic, with a subtle sci‑fi and industrial flavor in continuous text.
The design appears intended to translate geometric, straightedge-drawn letterforms into a lightweight, space-efficient font with a distinctive faceted alternative to curves. It prioritizes a constructed, technical aesthetic and a consistent polygonal logic across letters and numerals.
The facet treatment is consistent across round-derived shapes (such as O/C/G and numerals), creating a distinctive octagonal silhouette. Diagonals in V/W/X/Y are slender and steep, reinforcing the compressed width and giving headlines a taut, high-tension rhythm.
