A blocky, geometric sans with squared counters, flat terminals, and frequent 45° chamfered corners that create an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette. Strokes are monoline and heavy, producing strong figure/ground contrast; bowls and apertures are mostly rectangular, and curves are largely avoided. Widths are generous with a rigid, modular rhythm, and the forms emphasize straight horizontals and verticals with occasional diagonal joins in letters like K, M, N, V, W, X, and Y.
Best suited for display settings where a strong, tech-forward voice is desired: headlines, posters, esports/gaming graphics, interface labels, and brand marks for technology or industrial themes. It can work for short text in larger sizes, where the angular details and squared counters remain clear.
The overall tone reads distinctly futuristic and industrial, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi titles, and arcade-era display typography. Its hard angles and mechanical consistency give it a confident, engineered feel that leans more toward impact than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, engineered aesthetic using a strict rectilinear grid and chamfered corners, prioritizing bold presence and a futuristic voice over traditional text comfort.
Distinctive chamfering appears on many corners (notably in C, D, G, S, and Z), reinforcing a technical, fabricated look. Numerals and capitals share the same squared construction, and the lowercase maintains the same modular logic rather than becoming calligraphic or humanist.
