A sharply faceted, geometric sans with planar cuts replacing curves throughout the design. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with frequent chamfers and clipped terminals that create octagonal and hex-like counters in rounded letters such as O, Q, and G. Proportions read broadly set, with sturdy verticals and a rhythm built from straight segments and angled joins rather than smooth arcs. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, featuring single-storey forms and compact, polygonal bowls; the numerals match with similarly cut, angular silhouettes.
Best suited to display settings where its faceted construction can read as a deliberate stylistic statement—headlines, branding marks, posters, titles, and on-screen graphics. It can work in short bursts for UI labels or packaging callouts where a technological or industrial voice is desired, but is less naturally optimized for extended body copy.
The overall tone is assertive and synthetic, evoking sci-fi interfaces, engineered components, and retro arcade or console aesthetics. Its crisp facets and hard corners feel decisive and technical, prioritizing impact and a machined character over softness.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a sans-serif skeleton into a polygonal, cut-metal aesthetic, using consistent chamfers to create a cohesive faceted system. The intention seems focused on delivering a distinctive, high-impact look that signals technology and constructed geometry.
The design maintains consistent angle logic across caps, lowercase, and figures, with distinctive polygonal counters that give text a tiled, emblematic texture. In longer passages the dense, angular patterning can become visually busy, so spacing and size choices will strongly influence readability.
