A heavy, geometric sans with faceted construction: curves are largely replaced by straight segments and clipped corners, producing octagonal bowls and chamfered terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and counters are compact and sharply defined. The uppercase set reads wide and architectural, while the lowercase mixes squared bowls with simplified, linear stems, keeping a coherent, hard-edged rhythm across text. Numerals and capitals share the same cut-corner logic, reinforcing a mechanical, modular feel.
Best suited for display roles where its angular facets can read clearly—headlines, posters, cover art, branding marks, and game or tech interface graphics. It can also work for short UI labels and wayfinding-style text when set with ample size and spacing.
The overall tone is technical and assertive, with a distinctly digital, arcade-like flavor. Its crisp facets and blocky mass evoke engineered surfaces—signage, hardware labeling, and sci‑fi interfaces—rather than handwriting or classic editorial typography.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into a faceted, planar vocabulary, prioritizing sharp corners and clipped bowls to achieve a futuristic, industrial character while remaining legible in bold display settings.
Because many joins and bowls are flattened into angles, the texture can become dense in smaller sizes, especially in rounded letters and tight counters. In display sizes the faceting becomes a defining graphic feature, giving headlines a sharp, machined presence.
