A squared, geometric sans built from monoline strokes with crisp right angles and occasional 45° cuts. Curves are largely minimized into chamfered corners, giving rounds like O/C/G a rectilinear, octagonal feel. Counters tend to be open and rectangular, terminals are flat, and the overall rhythm is measured and modular, with some glyphs widening notably compared to others. The lowercase uses single-storey forms and compact constructions, pairing clean verticals with short, straight joins that keep the texture even in running text.
Best suited to display use where its angular detailing and squared counters can be appreciated—headlines, posters, product branding, packaging, and tech/event graphics. It also works well for short UI labels, dashboards, or on-screen overlays where a futuristic, system-like voice is desired, while extended body text may feel intense due to the high frequency of corners and straight segments.
The tone reads distinctly technical and constructed, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and engineered signage. Its hard corners and grid-like discipline feel precise and utilitarian, with a retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of early computer and arcade typography.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, digital construction into a clean sans voice, prioritizing geometric consistency and a futuristic silhouette. It aims for a structured, engineered look that remains legible while projecting a distinctly techno/industrial character.
Several glyphs emphasize stencil-like geometry through notched joins and inset angles, which reinforces a machined, plotted aesthetic. The numerals and capitals maintain strong squareness, while diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X, and Z introduce sharp contrast and motion without breaking the modular system.
