A crisp monoline slab-serif with squared, flat-ended terminals and consistent stroke thickness. Many curves are rendered as chamfered, octagonal-like forms, producing angular bowls and rounded corners that feel engineered rather than calligraphic. Serifs are compact and blocky, with bracketless joins, and the overall drawing favors straight segments, right angles, and clipped curves. Counters are open and fairly geometric, with a steady rhythm that reads cleanly in both capitals and lowercase; figures follow the same angular, segmented construction.
Well-suited to signage, labels, and packaging where a durable, engineered look is desirable. It also works effectively for posters and headlines that benefit from a retro-industrial voice, and can hold up in short text blocks thanks to its open forms and steady stroke color.
The font conveys a technical, industrial mood—precise, no-nonsense, and slightly retro. Its chamfered geometry and sturdy slab details evoke labeling, instrumentation, and workshop signage, while staying friendly enough for general display use.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif familiarity with a more geometric, machined construction. By replacing smooth curves with chamfers and keeping strokes strictly uniform, it aims for clarity and consistency while delivering a distinctive technical character.
The angular treatment is especially noticeable in rounded letters and numerals, where arcs resolve into short straight facets. Spacing appears even and deliberate, supporting clear word shapes in running text while keeping a distinctive, constructed personality.
