A monolinear sans with a distinctly faceted construction: curves are routinely replaced by short straight segments and chamfered corners, creating octagonal bowls and polygonal arcs. Strokes stay even and clean, with crisp terminals and a restrained, geometric rhythm that reads as engineered rather than handwritten. Proportions are compact and vertically oriented, with open counters and simplified joins that keep forms clear even as the lettershapes lean into angularity.
Best suited to display contexts where its faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and tech or product graphics. It can work for short text blocks at comfortable sizes, where the angular rhythm remains legible and intentional.
The overall tone feels technical and contemporary, with a subtle sci‑fi/industrial flavor driven by the planar facets and clipped curves. It projects precision and a constructed, architectural personality rather than softness or warmth.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a straightforward sans skeleton through an angular, polygonal lens—delivering a modern, engineered look that feels precise and slightly futuristic while remaining broadly readable.
Round characters like O/0 and C/G show the strongest facet treatment, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are sharp and decisive. The lowercase mixes simple geometric builds with occasional angular quirks (notably in rounded letters), producing a distinctive texture in paragraphs without becoming overly decorative.
