A sharply faceted, monoline display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, using polygonal construction in place of curves. Many rounds resolve into octagonal or chamfered shapes (notably in O, Q, and numerals), and terminals are frequently cut at angles rather than squared. Stems are tall and condensed with a disciplined vertical rhythm, while select letters introduce stylized internal cuts and double-line moments that read like inset bevels. Lowercase forms stay compact with pointed joins and simplified bowls, maintaining a consistent, geometric texture across words.
Best suited to display settings where its angular detailing can be appreciated: posters, title treatments, branding marks, packaging, and editorial headlines. It can also work for short, high-impact lines or signage-style statements, but the strong stylization makes it less ideal for long, continuous reading at small sizes.
The overall tone feels architectural and period-evocative, balancing Deco-era glamour with a slightly medieval or runic sharpness. Its faceting and chiseled detailing give it a crafted, emblematic personality that reads as bold and ceremonial rather than casual.
The font appears intended to reinterpret geometric, Deco-inspired lettering through a faceted, chiseled construction, prioritizing distinctive silhouettes and a crafted, architectural finish over neutrality. The consistent chamfers and inset-like cuts suggest a goal of adding dimensionality and character while staying within a clean, stroke-based framework.
The design relies on repeated chamfer angles and notch-like interior shaping to create cohesion, producing strong word silhouettes and a distinctive texture at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same faceted logic, helping headlines and short blocks of text feel unified.
