A sharp, geometric sans with pronounced chamfered corners and faceted curves that read as octagonal rather than round. Strokes are mostly straight and vertical, with crisp terminals and occasional tapering that creates a slightly etched, high-contrast rhythm without becoming calligraphic. Counters tend toward squarish shapes, bowls are compact, and diagonals are clean and deliberate, giving the alphabet a rigid, engineered structure. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with simplified forms and consistent corner treatments that keep texture even in longer lines of text.
Best suited to display settings where its angular detailing can be appreciated: headlines, posters, branding marks, game/UI titling, and tech-leaning packaging. It can work for short passages in large sizes, but the dense cornering and sharp joins suggest using generous tracking and avoiding very small text.
The overall tone feels technical and futuristic with a retro-digital edge, evoking signage, arcade-era display lettering, and sci‑fi interface typography. Its hard angles and controlled geometry create a precise, mechanical impression that can also skew slightly ominous or dystopian depending on context.
The design appears intended to translate a constructed, polygonal drawing system into a readable sans, balancing strict geometry with selective stroke modulation for clarity. It aims to deliver a distinctive, tech-forward voice while keeping a consistent texture across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Several glyphs show distinctive angular notches and clipped joins (notably in diagonals and at stroke intersections), which increases character and helps prevent the design from feeling purely modular. Numerals are similarly constructed and legible, with squared curves and strong vertical emphasis that match the caps.
