A faceted, geometric sans with strokes built from straight segments and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar cuts. Letterforms are generally wide and open, with a steady, low-contrast stroke and slightly irregular widths across the set that creates a lively rhythm. Bowls and counters tend toward octagonal shapes (notably in round letters and numerals), while diagonals are prominent and cleanly joined, producing a hard-edged silhouette. Terminals are blunt and angular, and the overall construction reads as engineered rather than calligraphic.
Best suited for display settings where its angular construction can read clearly and add character—posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and wayfinding-style signage. It also fits interfaces and branding that aim for a technical, engineered feel, especially at medium to large sizes where the faceting is a feature rather than a distraction.
The tone is mechanical and no-nonsense, with a sporty, industrial edge. Its sharp facets and angular rhythm suggest ruggedness and precision, evoking hardware markings, equipment labels, and futuristic or game-like UI aesthetics.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, cut-metal language, prioritizing sharp silhouettes and consistent planar corners over smooth curves. It aims to deliver a distinctive industrial voice while remaining broadly legible in short to medium text runs.
In text, the repeated corner cuts create a consistent sparkle along baselines and caps, giving long lines a distinctive, slightly restless texture. The numerals and rounded letters share the same polygonal logic, reinforcing a cohesive, machined look.
