A rectilinear, angular sans with a consistent monoline stroke and a distinctly condensed stance. Forms are built from straight segments and sharp corners, with occasional chamfered joins and squared terminals that create a technical, constructed feel. Curves are largely minimized; round letters are rendered as boxy, near-rectangular shapes, and diagonals appear selectively in letters like A, K, V, W, X, and Y. Counters tend to be open and tall, with crisp internal corners, giving the design a lean rhythm and a slightly modular, schematic texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where its angular geometry and condensed rhythm can read as a deliberate stylistic choice—such as headlines, posters, title cards, and brand marks. It also works well for tech-forward packaging, event graphics, or signage-inspired layouts where a schematic, constructed voice is desired.
The font reads as futuristic and industrial, with a utilitarian, machine-made tone. Its squared geometry and narrow proportions evoke signage, instrumentation, and retro-digital aesthetics rather than friendly everyday UI type. The overall impression is cool, controlled, and technical.
The design appears intended to translate a modular, engineered shape language into a legible sans alphabet, prioritizing crisp edges, narrow economy of space, and a futuristic, sign-like presence. It aims to provide a distinctive visual identity through rectilinear construction and simplified, technical letterforms.
Distinctive constructions include a boxy, squared O/0 vocabulary and a noticeably stylized ampersand that matches the rectilinear logic. The narrow fit and sharp corners produce a strong vertical cadence, while the simplified shapes can trade some softness and conventional readability for character.
