A tall, condensed sans with a strongly rectilinear build and squared terminals. Strokes are largely monolinear with crisp right angles and occasional softened corners, producing a modular, constructed rhythm. Counters are narrow and often rectangular, and curves (as in C, O, and S) are rendered with boxy, faceted geometry rather than true rounds. The overall spacing feels tight and efficient, reinforcing the vertical, sign-like proportions across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display sizes where its narrow, rectilinear details and compact counters stay clear—such as headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging, and wayfinding or product labeling. It can also work for short UI labels or titles when a technical, industrial tone is desired, but its tight apertures and boxy curves make it less ideal for long-form reading.
The font reads as technical and machine-made, with a retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of display lettering used in electronics, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its compact, angular forms give it a purposeful, engineered tone rather than a friendly or calligraphic one.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, space-efficient sans with a constructed, modular aesthetic—prioritizing a strong graphic silhouette, consistent vertical rhythm, and a distinctly engineered character for impactful display typography.
Distinctive, squared bowls and counters create a consistent pixel-adjacent texture without becoming fully bitmap. The numerals and uppercase share the same rigid architecture, and the lowercase follows suit with similarly constructed stems and simplified joins, keeping the voice uniform across mixed-case settings.
