A spare, rectilinear sans with consistent single-stroke construction and a strong preference for squared corners and planar, faceted turns instead of smooth curves. Many bowls and counters resolve into rounded-rectangle or boxy forms, with open apertures and a slightly segmented rhythm where corners are treated as crisp joints. Proportions feel compact and engineered, with simple diagonals in A/V/W/X and mostly straight-sided forms elsewhere; numerals and capitals share the same box-logic, creating a highly uniform texture in lines of text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its angular, squared curves remain legible: interface labels, wayfinding-style text, product/tech branding, and contemporary posters. In longer passages it maintains a clean texture, but the ultra-clean geometry and thin strokes will generally read most confidently at larger sizes and with ample contrast.
The overall tone is modern and schematic, suggesting interfaces, instrumentation, and constructed systems. Its cool, pared-back geometry reads as efficient and contemporary, with a subtle sci‑fi edge created by the squared curves and clipped joints.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, engineered aesthetic into a readable sans, replacing conventional curves with faceted, box-like turns to create a distinctive, futuristic voice while keeping letterforms straightforward and systematic.
Spacing appears even and airy, letting the thin strokes and open shapes avoid clogging. Distinctive boxy rounds in letters like O/Q and the squared curves in S/C/G give the font a consistent “designed-by-grid” signature that stands out most at display sizes.
