This typeface is built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets that give counters and terminals an octagonal feel. Stems are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a steady, monoline rhythm. Proportions read compact and efficient, with squared bowls, narrow apertures, and tight internal spaces that keep forms sturdy. The overall drawing stays clean and upright, with deliberate chamfers at joins and ends that create a mechanical, cut-metal impression.
Best suited for display settings where its faceted geometry can read clearly—headlines, posters, product marks, packaging, and tech-forward branding. It can also work for UI or on-screen labels when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the small apertures and crisp corners.
The faceted construction and hard corners convey a technological, engineered mood that feels digital and slightly retro-futurist. Its strict geometry and no-nonsense rhythm suggest utility and control, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, industrial signage, and arcade-era display styling without becoming ornamental.
The design intent appears to be a clean sans with a consistently faceted geometry, trading roundness for chamfered structure to create a modern, machine-made voice. It aims for strong visual identity through repeatable corner cuts and modular, straight-stroke construction.
Distinctive clipped terminals repeat across letters and numerals, helping maintain consistency at larger sizes while making small counters and apertures feel compact. The lowercase follows the same angular system as the caps, and figures share the same squared, segmented logic, supporting a cohesive typographic color across mixed-case text.
