A heavy, geometric display sans built from straight strokes and crisp angles, with frequent chamfered corners and wedge-like terminals. Bowls and counters tend toward rectangular or octagonal shapes, creating a modular, constructed feel rather than smooth curves. The letterforms use consistent stroke thickness with tight internal apertures, and many glyphs feature distinctive cut-ins and notches that read almost stencil-like. Overall spacing and proportions are roomy and horizontal, giving words a broad, blocky silhouette while maintaining clear separation between characters.
Best suited to display sizes where its angular detailing and tight apertures remain legible—such as headlines, posters, title cards, and brand marks. It also works well for interface graphics in games or tech-themed layouts, as well as packaging or signage that benefits from an industrial, engineered voice.
The font projects a retro-futuristic, machine-made tone—evoking arcade UI, sci-fi hardware labels, and industrial control typography. Its sharp geometry and deliberate cutaways feel technical and assertive, with a cool, engineered personality rather than friendly or handwritten warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, constructed geometry into a usable alphabet: broad, high-impact shapes with consistent stroke logic, distinctive chamfers, and controlled cutouts. The goal seems to be a strongly themed, futuristic sans that remains readable while delivering a signature mechanical texture.
Diagonal strokes appear as strong wedges and chamfers, and several forms rely on segmented construction (notably in angled joins), reinforcing a fabricated, modular aesthetic. The numerals share the same squared-off logic, with compact counters and angular turns that keep them visually consistent with the capitals.
