A geometric, faceted sans with sharp chamfers that replace curves, producing an octagonal, planar construction across rounds and diagonals. Strokes stay consistent and squared-off at terminals, with strong horizontal and vertical stems and clipped corners that create a technical, machined rhythm. Counters are fairly open and boxy; rounded letters like O, C, G, and Q read as multi-sided forms, and diagonals in V, W, X, and Y are straight and clean. The overall spacing and letterfit feel evenly metered, supporting a grid-like texture in text.
Works best for short to medium text where its faceted geometry can be a feature: interface headings, HUD/UI labels, packaging callouts, posters, and industrial or directional graphics. It also suits tech branding and game/arcade themed designs, especially where consistent alignment and a structured texture are desirable.
The tone is technical and engineered, evoking digital hardware labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial signage. Its faceting and hard corners add an assertive, no-nonsense character that reads as modernist with a retro arcade edge.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, machined aesthetic into a clean sans structure, using chamfered corners to maintain clarity while adding a distinctive, futuristic signature. It prioritizes consistent geometry and rhythm for disciplined layouts and technical-looking typography.
Distinctive details include the multi-faceted 0 and O, an angular S built from straight segments, and a compact, squared dot on i and j that reinforces the pixel-adjacent feel without becoming purely bitmap. Numerals carry the same chamfer language, keeping timers/scoreboard-style strings cohesive.
