A clean sans with straight, monoline strokes and sharply chamfered corners that replace most curves with short diagonal facets. Bowls and counters read as octagonal or polygonal forms, giving round letters a crisp, engineered silhouette. Proportions are compact and fairly even, with open apertures and generous internal space that keep the faceting from feeling cramped in text. Terminals are blunt and squared, and diagonals (as in A, V, W, X, Y) are rigid and geometric, maintaining a consistent, constructed rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited to interface labeling, dashboards, and technical or industrial branding where crisp geometry reads as deliberate and modern. It also works for posters and headlines that benefit from a distinctive polygonal texture, and can hold up in short-to-medium text where a clean, engineered voice is desired.
The faceted geometry conveys a technical, machined tone—cool, orderly, and slightly retro-digital. Its polygonal curves suggest instrumentation, hardware labeling, and sci‑fi interfaces rather than humanist warmth, while still remaining readable in continuous text.
The design appears intended to translate a neutral sans skeleton into a faceted, planar aesthetic, turning curved constructions into chamfered geometry for a more mechanical, futuristic presence while keeping text usability intact.
Distinctive faceting appears consistently in letters with curves (C, G, O, S, U) and in numerals, creating a cohesive “cut metal” look. Lowercase forms follow the same modular logic, with simple, upright structures and minimal stroke modulation, helping the face retain clarity across mixed-case settings.
