A wide, low-contrast serif with a geometric skeleton and flared terminals that read like subtle wedge serifs. Curves are squared-off and rounded-rectangle in character, with flattened bowls and corners that feel engineered rather than calligraphic. Stroke endings often widen into short, angled feet and caps, giving many letters a beveled, machined finish. Spacing and rhythm are open and steady, producing a broad, horizontal stance in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display typography where its wide proportions and sculpted terminals can read clearly—headlines, poster titles, logotypes, and brand marks. It can also work for packaging, entertainment graphics, and tech-facing identity systems that want a hybrid of serif authority and futuristic styling.
The overall tone is bold and architectural, mixing classical serif cues with a distinctly synthetic, sci‑fi edge. It suggests precision, strength, and a slightly retro-futurist attitude—confident and attention-grabbing without relying on high contrast.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif structure with contemporary, geometric shaping—creating a distinctive display face that feels both authoritative and modern. Its wide stance and flared, beveled endings prioritize impact and recognizability over neutrality, making it well matched to bold editorial and branding contexts.
Distinctive details include angular notches and cut-ins on several forms, squared counters, and a streamlined treatment of curves that keeps the texture uniform at display sizes. The numerals echo the same squared geometry and flared endings, reinforcing a cohesive, engineered look across letters and figures.
