A faceted sans with chamfered corners that turn curves into crisp planar segments. Strokes are monolinear and clean, with squared terminals and consistent join behavior that emphasizes an octagonal, constructed geometry. Proportions read straightforward and utilitarian, with open apertures and a slightly modular rhythm; rounded forms like O/C/G and numerals such as 0/6/8/9 are rendered as multi-sided outlines rather than smooth bowls.
Best suited to display sizes where the faceted construction is clearly visible—headlines, posters, logos, and brand systems that want a technical edge. It can also work for labels, UI headings, and packaging where a precise, geometric voice supports a modern industrial theme.
The overall tone feels technical and engineered, evoking signage, interface labeling, and hardware-forward aesthetics. Its sharp facets give it a futuristic, architectural character that reads as controlled and deliberate rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a hard-edged, planed form language—replacing curves with controlled facets to create a futuristic, engineered feel while keeping letterforms familiar and highly structured.
Diagonal-heavy letters (K, V, W, X, Y) look especially crisp due to the consistent chamfers, while the faceting gives counters a distinctive polygonal look. The set maintains a coherent mechanical logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with the lowercase echoing the same angular construction.
