A blocky, geometric sans with heavy, squared-off strokes and strongly angular corner logic. Shapes are built from rectilinear modules with frequent 45° chamfers, producing a compact, mechanical rhythm. Counters tend to be square or rectangular and often inset like cutouts, while horizontals and verticals stay uniform in thickness. The lowercase follows the same constructed approach, with simplified bowls and terminals that keep the silhouette rigid and pixel-adjacent without being strictly grid-pixel.
Best suited for display roles where impact and a tech-industrial voice are desired: game interfaces, arcade-inspired graphics, sci‑fi titles, event posters, bold brand marks, and packaging. It performs well in short phrases and large settings where the angular detailing and squared counters can be clearly perceived.
The overall tone is assertive and machine-made, evoking arcade UI, sci‑fi labeling, and industrial stenciling. Its sharp geometry and dense black forms read as energetic and tough, with a retro-digital flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, constructed sans that feels digitally engineered and rugged, prioritizing graphic presence and a distinctive angular system over typographic neutrality.
Diagonal cuts in letters like A, K, M, N, V, W, X, and Y create distinctive zig-zag joins, and several glyphs use notched terminals that enhance a fabricated, “cut metal” feel. Numerals share the same squared counter treatment and maintain a consistently chunky presence in running text.
