A blocky, rectilinear display face built from squared strokes and hard 90° corners, with occasional stepped cuts and notch-like intrusions that create a deliberately imperfect, mechanical rhythm. Forms are wide and mostly monolinear in construction, with sharp terminals and large, boxy counters (notably in O/Q and several capitals) that emphasize a modular, grid-based feel. Lowercase follows the same geometric logic with simplified, squarish bowls and straight-sided stems, while select characters introduce idiosyncratic asymmetries and “glitch” details (e.g., irregular joints and small bite-outs) to keep the texture lively in text. Numerals are similarly squared and segmented, reading clearly as display figures with a digital, constructed attitude.
Best suited to display work where its blocky geometry and intentional quirks can be appreciated: posters, headlines, game or arcade-themed interfaces, packaging callouts, and short logotypes. It can also work for title cards or on-screen graphics when you want a digital/tech flavor with an offbeat twist.
The overall tone feels retro-digital and game-like, mixing a futuristic techno voice with mischievous irregularities. Its quirky cuts and occasional distortions add a hacked, experimental energy that reads as playful rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to evoke a constructed, grid-driven techno aesthetic while injecting irregular, glitch-like details for personality. It prioritizes impact and distinctive texture over neutrality, aiming for memorable shapes in titles and branding.
Spacing appears generous and the shapes maintain a consistent cap-height and baseline presence, producing a strong horizontal texture. Distinctive silhouette features—like the squared, open C/E/F forms and the boxy O/Q with a small tail—help recognition at larger sizes, while the intentional quirks can become visually busy if set too small or too tightly.
