A geometric sans with strong, faceted construction that replaces curves with short straight planes and chamfered corners. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, producing a solid, low-detail silhouette with crisp internal counters (notably in O, Q, 8, and 0) that read as octagonal. Proportions skew broad with a tall x-height, and the rhythm is driven by flat terminals, diagonal cuts, and occasional wedge-like joins, giving the lowercase a compact, engineered feel. Numerals follow the same planar logic, with simplified apertures and consistent cornering for a cohesive alphanumeric set.
Best suited to display applications where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title cards, logos, and branding for technology, gaming, or industrial themes. It can also work for UI labels and short navigation text when a bold, angular voice is desired, while long-form reading may feel visually busy due to the constant cornering.
The overall tone feels futuristic and machine-made, with an arcade/tech interface energy. Its sharp facets and assertive weight suggest precision, durability, and a slightly retro-digital character rather than softness or elegance.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke a constructed, polygonal aesthetic—delivering a clean sans foundation with a distinctive faceted surface language for modern, tech-forward communication. The consistent chamfers and octagonal curves suggest an intention to stay legible while projecting a purposeful, engineered personality.
At text sizes the repeated chamfers create a distinct sparkle along horizontal runs, while the simplified, polygonal counters keep forms recognizable. The design favors strong silhouettes and angular punctuation-like cuts, which can become visually dominant in dense paragraphs but read powerfully in shorter lines.
