A geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp joins, with curves largely translated into rectilinear turns and faceted diagonals. Stems and crossbars maintain a consistent line weight and terminate in squared ends, producing an airy, outline-like color on the page. Proportions skew horizontally, with broad capitals and open, boxy bowls; diagonals (as in V, W, X, Y, K) are crisp and evenly tensioned. Lowercase forms echo the same modular construction, with simplified apertures and counters that read as squared openings rather than rounded spaces. Numerals follow the same linear, angular logic, keeping a consistent rhythm across the set.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, poster titling, logotypes, and tech-forward branding where its angular geometry can be a feature. It also fits UI labels, product markings, and packaging systems that benefit from a crisp, schematic texture, especially when set with ample spacing and contrasty backgrounds.
The overall tone is clean and engineered, evoking interface typography, sci‑fi labeling, and schematic graphics. Its sharp, planar construction feels contemporary and slightly experimental, with a precise, machine-made character rather than a humanist warmth. The light stroke presence gives it a sleek, high-tech voice that stays understated even when the forms become stylized.
The letterforms appear designed to reinterpret a neutral sans skeleton through a faceted, rectilinear drawing system, prioritizing sharp geometry and a consistent monoline construction. The goal seems to be a distinctive, modern voice that reads as precise and digital while staying structured and repeatable across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design relies on internal whitespace and open shapes to maintain legibility, so it appears most confident with generous tracking and at larger sizes where its angular detailing can resolve clearly. In text settings the repeated right angles create a distinctive grid-like rhythm, making the font especially recognizable in headings and short lines.
