A thin, high-contrast display face built from straight, monoline-like strokes with frequent chamfered and octagonal turns. Many glyphs introduce deliberate “breaks” and wedge-like black notches that interrupt strokes, creating a fractured, cut-out rhythm across the alphabet. Counters often become polygonal, and several round forms (like O/0) read as octagons, sometimes with a small diamond-shaped counter detail. Proportions are generally compact with long, hairline verticals and sharp terminals, giving the texture a crisp, engineered feel while remaining intentionally irregular.
Best suited for short display settings such as posters, titles, album/cover art, and game or sci‑fi themed interfaces where its angular construction and glitch-like cutouts can be appreciated. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that benefit from a coded, futuristic personality, but it’s less appropriate for long-form reading due to its thin strokes and decorative disruptions.
The overall tone is playful and strange—like a techno puzzle or a stylized cipher—mixing precision geometry with mischievous disruptions. The sporadic inky wedges add a glitchy, slightly ominous edge that feels sci‑fi and experimental rather than friendly or traditional.
The design appears intended to feel constructed and futuristic—built from faceted geometry—while adding deliberate imperfections through wedge cutouts to create a one-off, expressive texture. It aims to stand out with a distinctive, experimental voice rather than to behave like a neutral text face.
Legibility is strongest at larger sizes where the hairline strokes and internal notches don’t collapse. The distinctive treatment of rounded letters into faceted polygons and the recurring diamond/cutout motifs create strong stylistic coherence, but the intentional interruptions can make dense text feel busy.
