A heavy geometric sans built from straight strokes and planar cuts, with corners consistently chamfered into octagonal silhouettes. Curves are largely replaced by faceted segments, producing squared bowls and sharply notched terminals. Counters are compact and rectangular, joins are blunt and orthogonal, and stroke endings tend toward clipped, mechanical finishes. Proportions skew broad with a steady, modular rhythm; the lowercase follows the same engineered construction, with single-storey forms and simplified apertures.
Best suited for display roles where its angular, faceted construction can be a defining visual element—headlines, branding marks, product titling, packaging panels, and environmental graphics. It can also work for short UI labels, badges, and technical identifiers when a strong, engineered aesthetic is desired.
The overall tone is technical and utilitarian, evoking machinery, interfaces, and hard-surface design. Its faceted construction reads as contemporary and sci‑fi, with a disciplined, no-nonsense voice that feels suited to high-impact labeling and display.
The font appears designed to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, hard-edged system, prioritizing impact and stylistic cohesion over softness. Its consistent chamfer logic suggests an intention to feel machine-made and modern, delivering a distinctive polygonal voice across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The design leans on repeated chamfer angles across letters and numerals, creating strong stylistic cohesion. Diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y and Z) are wide and stable, while round letters like O/Q/C/G retain a distinctly polygonal, cut-corner character. Numerals follow the same squared geometry, maintaining consistent density and presence in mixed text.
