A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with short planar facets. Terminals are consistently chamfered, creating an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters (notably in O/0 and rounded lowercase forms). Strokes keep a steady thickness with crisp inside corners; diagonals are clean and restrained, and horizontals feel slightly extended, giving a sturdy, engineered silhouette. The lowercase is compact with simple, single-storey structures and squared apertures, while the numerals echo the same cut-corner construction for a cohesive alphanumeric texture.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, title cards, and brand marks where the angular, cut-corner motif can lead the visual identity. It also fits UI labels for games or tech products, packaging callouts, and short blocks of text where a hard-edged, engineered feel is desired.
The overall tone reads technical and machine-made, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of instrumentation, sci‑fi interfaces, and arcade-era display lettering. Its sharp faceting and rigid geometry convey precision, toughness, and a mildly dystopian/industrial character rather than warmth or softness.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded sans skeleton into a fully planar, chamfered system, producing a consistent faceted look across caps, lowercase, and figures. The emphasis is on clarity and a distinctive techno-industrial voice through repeated clipped-corner geometry.
The faceted construction yields strong shape recognition at medium-to-large sizes, where the chamfers become a defining detail. In dense text, the repeated clipped corners create a lively, pixel-adjacent texture that feels systematic and modular.
