A heavy, block-built sans with squared proportions and crisp, angular corner cuts. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal internal modulation, and many joins are formed by chamfers and triangular notches that create a pixel-meets-metal geometry. Counters are small and often squared or slit-like, with occasional stencil-like breaks in strokes that read as deliberate cutouts rather than rounding. The overall rhythm is compact and dense, with sturdy verticals, flat terminals, and a mechanical, grid-driven construction across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where the angular cutout details can read clearly. It also fits game UI, sci-fi/industrial graphics, posters, album art, and bold logo wordmarks that benefit from a hard-edged, constructed texture.
The font projects a rugged, machine-made attitude with strong retro-digital overtones. Its sharp cut-ins and compact counters evoke arcade cabinets, sci-fi interfaces, and industrial labeling, leaning assertive and confrontational rather than friendly or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a modular, engineered silhouette, using chamfers and cutouts to add character without introducing curves. It prioritizes a distinctive, futuristic-industrial voice and a strong blocky texture for display-driven typography.
In running text the dense interiors and tight openings make the color very dark, especially in words with multiple closed forms. The distinctive notch and cutout motif is consistent across the set and becomes a key recognition feature at display sizes.
