A heavy, monoline display sans built from straight segments and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Counters are largely rectangular and apertures are squared-off, producing an octagonal, machined silhouette across the set. Strokes maintain consistent thickness with minimal contrast, and terminals are flat with frequent chamfers that create a steady, grid-like rhythm. The overall spacing reads compact and engineered, with simplified joins that keep forms rigid and highly graphic at larger sizes.
This font suits bold headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a mechanical, angular voice. It also works well for gaming titles, sci‑fi packaging, and interface or motion graphics where a strong, geometric texture is desirable.
The faceted geometry and hard edges project a futuristic, industrial tone—more "hardware interface" than humanist. It feels assertive and tactical, with a retro arcade and sci‑fi console flavor that prioritizes impact over warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded sans skeleton into a fully faceted, planar construction, delivering a rigid, machine-made aesthetic with consistent stroke weight and strong presence in display typography.
The sample text shows the design holding together best in headline settings where the angular cuts remain clear; at smaller sizes the narrow internal openings and sharp notches can visually close up. Numerals and capitals match the same chamfered construction, reinforcing a cohesive, utilitarian system look.
