A geometric sans built from straight strokes with consistent line weight and frequent chamfered corners, creating octagonal, faceted outlines where curves would normally appear. The skeleton is largely rational and modular, with vertical and horizontal strokes dominating and diagonals used sparingly but decisively in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. Counters tend toward polygonal forms, terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm feels engineered, with slightly mechanical joins and a tidy, open texture in text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium setting where the faceted silhouettes can read as a deliberate design feature, such as UI labels, product interfaces, sci‑fi or tech branding, and modern signage. It also works for headlines and posters that benefit from a crisp, engineered feel, especially at larger sizes where the chamfered corners are most apparent.
The faceted construction gives the typeface a technical, futuristic tone—precise and instrument-like rather than expressive or handwritten. Its sharp cornering and schematic geometry suggest interfaces, machinery, and constructed environments, lending a cool, controlled demeanor.
The design appears intended to translate classic sans forms into a planar, polygonal system—replacing curves with controlled facets to achieve a consistent, machine-drawn look while staying legible in continuous text.
Distinctive chamfers appear consistently across rounds (C, G, O, Q, 8, 9), helping maintain uniformity and a recognizable silhouette system. Numerals and capitals share the same polygonal logic, and the light stroke weight keeps the style airy despite the hard-edged forms.
