A geometric, faceted sans with monoline strokes and frequent chamfered corners that turn curves into crisp planar segments. Many rounded forms (C, G, O, Q, 0, 8) read as octagonal or diamond-like loops, while straight letters (E, F, H, I, L, T) keep clean, uniform stems and arms. Terminals are typically clipped at angles rather than rounded, and diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) feel sharp and intentionally constructed. The lowercase maintains a simple, single-storey structure with open counters and lightly stylized joins, preserving legibility while keeping the same cut-corner logic across the set.
Best suited to display settings where the faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, logos/wordmarks, product packaging, event graphics, and stylized signage. It can also work for short UI labels or titles when a futuristic, constructed look is desired, while longer passages may feel busy due to the strong angular character.
The faceting and clipped terminals create a crystalline, sci‑fi tone—like lettering designed for interfaces, gadgets, or stylized wayfinding. Its geometry adds a playful edge, reading modern and slightly game-like rather than purely neutral.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a straightforward sans skeleton through a consistent cut-corner, planar vocabulary, giving familiar letterforms a futuristic, engineered personality without resorting to decorative serifs or contrast.
Numerals echo the same polygonal logic—especially 0, 8, and 9—supporting a cohesive alphanumeric texture. In text, the consistent stroke and angular curvature produce a steady rhythm with distinctive silhouettes, particularly in round letters and diagonals.
