A stylized monoline sans with a geometric skeleton and frequent right angles paired with broad curves. Strokes maintain an even thickness, while terminals often end in squared cuts or short horizontal/vertical bars, giving many letters a constructed, modular feel. Counters tend toward open or simplified forms, and several glyphs include distinctive internal notches or cut-ins that act like inline accents. Uppercase shapes are tall and airy, with clean arcs in O/Q and a sharply simplified treatment of diagonals in forms like K, V, W, X, and Z; the numerals follow the same angular-meets-rounded logic with smooth bowls and firm, flat terminals.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, title cards, and branding where a distinctive geometric voice is desired. It can also work for packaging or signage that benefits from a clean, constructed aesthetic, especially when set with generous tracking.
The overall tone reads retro-futurist and Art Deco–leaning, with a crisp, engineered rhythm that feels both decorative and systematic. The consistent line weight keeps it calm and legible at display sizes, while the deliberate cut-ins and squared terminals add a distinctive, slightly sci‑fi character.
The font appears designed to reinterpret a straightforward sans foundation through a constructed, geometric lens—adding signature cut-ins and squared terminals to create a memorable, era-referencing display style while retaining a coherent, monoline structure.
The design language is highly consistent across cases, and the lowercase echoes the uppercase construction rather than adopting conventional text-sans forms. Spacing and shapes favor clarity in large settings, while the stylization (notches, open counters, and capped strokes) is prominent enough to become part of the voice in headlines.
