A monoline, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with small planar facets that create an octagonal, chamfered silhouette. The letterforms are open and airy with generous spacing and a narrow stroke that keeps counters prominent, while horizontals and verticals maintain a consistent mechanical rhythm. Uppercase shapes feel constructed and schematic, and the lowercase echoes the same faceted logic with simplified bowls and angular joins; numerals follow the same cut-corner geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited to display sizes where the chamfered geometry and wireframe construction can read cleanly—such as headlines, logotypes, posters, motion graphics, and tech-oriented packaging. In UI contexts it works well for labels, dashboards, and interface headings where a futuristic, engineered voice is desired.
The overall tone reads precise and engineered, with a sci‑fi/tech flavor driven by the faceted “machined” corners and minimalist stroke work. It suggests digital interfaces, instrumentation, and contemporary product aesthetics rather than humanist warmth.
The design appears intended to translate classic sans proportions into a faceted, polygonal system—evoking cut metal, plotted vectors, or octagonal signage—while keeping a clean, modern baseline and consistent monoline construction.
The faceting is applied consistently across round-derived forms (C/G/O/Q and related lowercase), giving the font a distinctive polygonal texture. The design favors clear geometric structure over calligraphic modulation, and the light stroke and open construction make it feel like a line-drawn display face.
