A geometric sans built from straight strokes and faceted corners, replacing curves with crisp chamfers. Forms read as squarish and octagonal, with consistent stroke thickness and clean, open counters. Terminals frequently end in clipped angles, creating a hard-edged rhythm; diagonals are used sparingly but decisively in letters like K, V, W, X, Y, and Z. Spacing and widths vary by glyph, but the overall texture stays even due to the uniform stroke and consistent corner treatment.
Best suited to display sizes where the chamfered details and angular silhouettes can read clearly—titles, posters, logotypes, product branding, and tech or gaming interfaces. It also works well for short functional strings such as labels, callsigns, model numbers, and scoreboard-style numerals where a crisp, engineered aesthetic is desired.
The faceted construction gives the type a futuristic, engineered tone—evoking hardware panels, sci‑fi UI lettering, and arcade-era display graphics. Its sharp geometry feels assertive and technical, with a controlled, machine-made crispness rather than a friendly or handwritten warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, panel-like construction into a legible sans alphabet, using consistent chamfers to imply precision and speed. By standardizing angles and minimizing curvature, it aims for a cohesive techno voice that remains readable across mixed-case text and numerals.
Uppercase and lowercase share a strongly unified design language, with single-storey, simplified lowercase shapes that maintain the same angular logic as the caps. Numerals follow the same chamfered silhouette, keeping the set visually cohesive for codes, labels, and on-screen readouts.
