A sharply faceted, condensed sans with planar cuts replacing round curves throughout the alphabet. Stems are mostly straight and near-monolinear, with subtle contrast appearing where angled joins and notches tighten counters. Terminals frequently end in chamfered points or clipped corners, giving bowls and diagonals a crisp, engineered profile. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, and the overall rhythm is tall and tightly spaced, with consistent stroke logic carried across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
This font is best suited to headlines and short lines where its faceted detailing remains clear. It works well for posters, film or game title cards, signage, and distinctive brand marks that benefit from a tall, stylized silhouette. For longer reading, it performs more as an accent than a primary text face.
The tone is sleek and stylized, reading as modernist and architectural with a distinct Art Deco edge. Its sharp facets and narrow build evoke signage, title sequences, and futuristic interfaces rather than neutral text typography.
The design appears intended to translate geometric, chiseled letterforms into a consistent sans system, prioritizing a strong vertical silhouette and crisp corner work over softness or neutrality. Its construction suggests a focus on display impact and thematic styling for contemporary and retro-futurist applications.
Uppercase forms emphasize verticality and symmetry, while lowercase retains the same faceted construction for continuity. Numerals follow the same clipped-corner geometry, keeping a cohesive, display-forward texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
