A rectilinear, geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp corners, with occasional diagonals used sparingly for letters like K, V, W, X, and Z. The stroke is consistently linear, and terminals end bluntly, creating a crisp, engineered silhouette. Counters are mostly squared and compact, and several glyphs suggest constructed, stencil-adjacent joins where strokes meet, especially in enclosed forms. Proportions vary by glyph, with wide capitals and condensed verticals coexisting to create a modular, grid-based rhythm in text.
Best suited to short headlines, logos, and title treatments where its angular construction can read as intentional and characterful. It also fits UI overlays, game graphics, and technical or product labeling, particularly when set with generous tracking or at larger sizes for clarity.
The overall tone is clean and synthetic, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, electronic labeling, and retro computer or arcade aesthetics. Its sharp geometry and tight internal spaces give it an assertive, technical voice rather than a friendly or humanist one.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-and-segment logic into an all-purpose sans, prioritizing a futuristic, engineered look. It emphasizes modular consistency and striking silhouettes over conventional text warmth, aiming for a distinctive, tech-forward typographic texture.
At text sizes the compact counters and frequent right angles can create dense dark spots, while at larger sizes the distinctive construction and corner logic become a key visual feature. Numerals follow the same squared, segmented approach, reinforcing a display-oriented, systemlike feel.
