A geometric, faceted sans with monoline strokes and consistent chamfered corners that replace most curves with short angled segments. Counters and bowls tend toward squarish, octagonal forms, creating a crisp, planar rhythm across the alphabet. Terminals are clean and clipped, with minimal stroke modulation and a slightly technical, modular feel; diagonals (V/W/X/Y) read as sharp and linear, while rounded letters (O/C/G/Q) appear as segmented polygons. Spacing appears even and open in the sample text, supporting clear word shapes despite the angular construction.
Best suited for interface labels, product UI, and technology-oriented branding where an engineered, angular voice is desired. It also works well for headlines, posters, and signage/wayfinding that benefit from crisp, geometric letterforms and strong shape consistency at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic, with a subtle retro digital flavor reminiscent of early computer and sci‑fi interface lettering. Its clipped geometry feels controlled and engineered rather than expressive, projecting clarity, precision, and a contemporary industrial calm.
The design appears intended to translate a clean sans structure into a faceted, planar system—prioritizing sharp geometry, consistent corner treatment, and a modern technical voice while remaining readable in continuous text.
Distinctive faceting is most noticeable on traditionally round glyphs, producing a consistent octagonal silhouette family-wide. The design maintains legibility in paragraph-like settings while retaining a strong display identity, especially in uppercase and numerals where the straight edges and chamfers create a pronounced, mechanical character.
