A geometric, angular display face built from squared and chamfered strokes, with frequent 45° cuts that create an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters. Letterforms are constructed as bold outlines with a consistent inner inline that reads like a carved channel, producing a layered, tubular effect. Corners are crisp and straight, curves are largely avoided, and horizontals/verticals dominate with occasional diagonal joins. Proportions feel compact with moderately wide counters, and the overall spacing and stroke patterning stay consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where the inline detailing can be appreciated: posters, title cards, game or sci‑fi interface graphics, branding marks, and display headlines. It can work for labels or signage-style applications when set with generous size and breathing room.
The styling evokes classic sci‑fi interfaces and arcade-era industrial graphics, combining a technical precision with a slightly retro, schematic flavor. The inline detail adds a sense of engineered depth, giving the face a constructed, machine-made personality rather than a handwritten or organic tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a futuristic, engineered look through faceted geometry and an integrated inline that suggests depth and circuitry. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a consistent constructed system over neutral readability, making it a strong choice for themed display typography.
The double-line construction can create dense texture in longer text, and the many chamfered terminals emphasize a faceted, signage-like silhouette. Numerals follow the same angular logic (notably the octagonal 0), reinforcing a cohesive, hardware-inspired set.
