A geometric, monolinear display face built from squared, octagonal forms with clipped corners and a consistent inline cut running through each stroke. The letterforms are largely boxy and constructed, with straight sides, flat terminals, and occasional stepped joins that emphasize a modular, drawn-with-a-ruler feel. Counters tend toward rectangular shapes, and the inline detailing creates a layered, double-stroke look that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Overall spacing feels even and engineered, with crisp edges and a clean, schematic rhythm that reads best at larger sizes.
Well suited for headlines, wordmarks, and titling where the inline carving can be appreciated, such as posters, album art, product packaging, and tech-themed branding. It also fits interface labels and game UI for futuristic or retro-digital aesthetics, especially when used with ample size and spacing.
The inline outline treatment and chamfered geometry evoke retro-futurist signage, arcade interfaces, and technical labeling. It carries a precise, machine-made tone—confident, cool, and slightly nostalgic—suggesting electronics, dashboards, and 80s/90s sci‑fi visual language.
The design appears intended to deliver a structured, futuristic display voice by combining a geometric, chamfered skeleton with an inline treatment that mimics engraved or schematic lettering. The consistent modular construction prioritizes a cohesive techno rhythm over calligraphic softness, aiming for strong stylistic presence in short-form text.
Several glyphs use distinctive angular construction (notably diagonals and curved substitutes built from facets), reinforcing a polygonal silhouette rather than true curves. The inline detail adds visual complexity, so dense paragraphs can feel busy; short lines and generous tracking help preserve clarity.
