A faceted, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with short diagonal facets that create an octagonal rhythm. Strokes are monoline and evenly weighted, with squared terminals and consistent corner chamfers across letters and numerals. Proportions read compact and sturdy, with simple, open counters and a slightly engineered, modular feel; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay crisp and clean, while round forms (O, C, G, Q, 0) resolve into polygonal outlines. In text, the face holds a tight, regular cadence and remains clear at display sizes, where the corner-cut motif is most apparent.
Well-suited for headlines, logos, and brand systems that want a precise, industrial edge. The sturdy geometry works well for sports and automotive-style graphics, product packaging, labels, and wayfinding where a crisp, technical tone is desired. It can also support interface titles or dashboard-style readouts where the faceted forms reinforce a hardware-like aesthetic.
The overall tone is technical and hard-edged, evoking machinery, equipment labeling, and performance graphics. The clipped geometry adds a futuristic, tactical flavor without becoming decorative, keeping the voice practical and assertive.
The design appears intended to translate a clean sans skeleton into a faceted, planar construction—maintaining straightforward legibility while adding a distinctive corner-cut signature. Its consistent chamfers and uniform stroke logic suggest a focus on repeatable geometry and a modern, engineered presence.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same corner-faceted construction, giving mixed-case settings a cohesive, engineered look. Numerals follow the same octagonal logic, aiding consistency in UI readouts and data-heavy layouts.
