A blocky, geometric sans built from straight strokes and squared counters, with frequent chamfered corners and small notches that create a faceted, cut-out feel. The forms are compact and heavy, with simplified construction and minimal curvature; bowls and apertures read as squared or angular openings. Spacing and rhythm emphasize a gridlike, modular structure, and the lowercase uses short ascenders with simple, sturdy shapes that echo the capitals.
Best suited for display applications where its angular details and dense weight can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title cards, game UI, and branding marks. It can also work for short labels or packaging accents when a rugged, tech-forward voice is desired, but it may feel heavy for extended small-size reading.
The overall tone is mechanical and retro-tech, evoking arcade-era display lettering and utilitarian industrial markings. Its sharp cuts and squared geometry feel assertive and engineered, giving text a bold, programmed presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a modular, digital-meets-industrial flavor, using chamfers and notches to add character without introducing curves or ornament.
The distinctive corner cuts and occasional internal cut-ins act like built-in detailing, adding texture at larger sizes while increasing visual density in longer lines. Numerals follow the same angular logic, with straight segments and squared interiors that keep the set cohesive.
