This typeface is built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Letterforms are tall and space-efficient with relatively tight counters and a compact, vertical rhythm. Stroke weight stays consistent throughout, with squared terminals and frequent 45° chamfers that give rounds like C, G, O, and S an octagonal silhouette. The lowercase follows the same geometric logic, with simplified, upright forms and minimal modulation, creating an even, sturdy texture in text.
It works best for headlines, posters, and branding moments where a sharp, constructed look is desirable. The condensed, angular build also suits signage, packaging, and labels that need a strong, space-saving voice. For longer reading, it’s more effective in short bursts such as captions, callouts, and UI headings.
The overall tone feels engineered and utilitarian, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and hard-surfaced design. Its sharp geometry also reads as mildly retro-futuristic, suggesting mechanical precision rather than softness or warmth.
The design intention appears to be a clean sans with a distinctly machined, faceted geometry—delivering clarity and impact through straight edges, clipped corners, and a compact footprint.
The faceting is applied consistently across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, helping maintain a cohesive voice at both display sizes and in short text. Numerals share the same clipped construction, and the design’s tight interior spaces can make it feel dense when set in longer passages.
