A heavy, angular sans with planar, faceted shaping that substitutes curves with clipped corners and octagonal counters. Strokes are consistently thick, with squared terminals and frequent notch-like cuts that create a segmented, engineered look. Bowls and rounds (O, C, G, 0) read as squarish octagons, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are straight and sturdy, producing a rigid, mechanical rhythm. Spacing feels tight and blocky, and the overall texture is dense and high-contrast against the page due to the large stroke mass and compact apertures.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, wordmarks, and branding where the angular construction can be a defining visual asset. It also fits on-screen UI moments like game menus, sci‑fi overlays, or section labels, especially at larger sizes where the faceting and notches remain clear.
The font conveys a modern, hard-edged attitude associated with sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and competitive gaming aesthetics. Its faceted geometry reads as technical and forceful, with a distinctly synthetic, machine-cut tone rather than a friendly or neutral voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary display voice built from straight segments and clipped corners, maximizing a technical, machined feel while keeping letterforms recognizable and consistent across the set.
Distinctive clipped corners and internal chamfers give many glyphs a “milled” silhouette that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase maintains the same geometric construction as the caps, emphasizing uniformity and a display-first character.
