A pared-back sans with consistent stroke weight and a geometry-first construction. Round letters (C, O, Q) read as near-circles with clean joins, while many capitals lean on straight stems and simplified bowls. Several glyphs show distinctive cut-ins and breaks—most noticeably in A and B—plus flat, often separated terminals on forms like E, F, and T. Lowercase shapes are compact and open, mixing rounded counters (a, e) with straight, vertical stems (h, n, r), and numerals echo the same simplified, high-contrast-in-shape approach with generous apertures.
Well-suited to branding systems, headlines, and poster typography where its distinctive construction can be appreciated. It can also work for UI labels, wayfinding-style titling, and packaging where a clean sans is desired but with a more characterful, tech-leaning edge.
The overall tone is modern and controlled, with a slightly unconventional, engineered personality. The intentional interruptions and clipped terminals add a futuristic, schematic feel without becoming decorative, giving the face a subtle eccentricity that reads as contemporary and design-forward.
The design appears intended to deliver a functional sans foundation while introducing identifiable, modernist quirks through deliberate gaps, clipped terminals, and simplified geometry. The result balances legibility with a signature look aimed at contemporary graphic applications.
The letterforms favor clarity through open counters and straightforward silhouettes, but the stylized breaks and asymmetric details create a recognizable signature, especially in display sizes. Diacritics shown (e.g., macrons) appear as clean, detached marks that match the font’s stripped-down logic.
