A geometric sans built from straight strokes and squared bowls, with corners consistently softened into small-radius rounds. Many capitals show an inset/inline treatment that creates a doubled-stroke look, while lowercase is generally simpler and more open. Curves are largely replaced by faceted, planar turns, producing boxy counters and rectangular arches; terminals tend to be blunt and squared. Overall spacing feels tight and engineered, with crisp joins and a constructed, modular rhythm across letters and figures.
Best suited to display settings where the faceted geometry and inline caps can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding-style graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or tech-themed graphics when set at sizes large enough to keep the inner detailing clear.
The face reads as technical and retro-futuristic, echoing industrial labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and late-20th-century display typography. Its inset detailing adds a schematic, instrument-panel flavor, balancing playfulness with a machine-made seriousness.
The design appears intended to deliver a constructed, panel-like aesthetic by combining squared forms, softened corners, and selective inline detailing—creating a distinctive, futuristic display voice while retaining a clean sans foundation.
Uppercase and lowercase have noticeably different personalities: caps are more decorative due to the inline treatment, while lowercase prioritizes legibility with simpler forms. Numerals follow the same squared, rounded-corner logic and maintain a consistent, engineered silhouette.
