A monoline sans with an angular, faceted construction that substitutes curves with short planar segments. Strokes remain consistently thin, with squared terminals and frequent clipped corners that create an octagonal rhythm in bowls and counters. Proportions are tall and compact, with a restrained cap height-to-width relationship and clean, open apertures. The texture is airy and schematic, with straight-sided verticals and diagonals that read crisp at larger sizes.
Best suited for display typography where the faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging accents, and tech-themed branding. It also fits short UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding-style applications when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels futuristic and engineered, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and industrial wayfinding. Its cool, pared-back geometry projects precision and neutrality rather than warmth or expressiveness.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, lightweight sans optimized for a high-tech aesthetic, using systematic corner cuts to suggest precision and modernity while keeping the drawing simple and consistent.
Round glyphs like O/0 and C/G show the most distinctive faceting, producing a subtle chamfered outline that stays consistent across the set. Numerals and uppercase share the same angular logic, giving headings and UI-style strings a cohesive, system-like voice.
