A heavy, geometric sans built from squared-off strokes and tight, rectilinear counters. Corners are predominantly hard with occasional chamfered/diagonal cuts, creating a machined, modular feel. Curves are minimized (notably in letters like O and C), replaced by faceted, near-rectangular forms; bowls and apertures stay relatively narrow and controlled. Terminals are flat and abrupt, and internal cutouts often read as inset rectangles, giving several glyphs a subtle stencil/slot character. Overall spacing is compact, with a strong horizontal rhythm and a consistent, engineered silhouette across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, title cards, game/UI overlays, and technology or industrial branding. It holds up well at larger sizes where the squared counters and chamfer details remain clear and contribute to the intended mechanical texture.
The tone is assertive and synthetic, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and arcade-era display typography. Its angular construction feels precise and technical, with a mildly aggressive edge that reads as "built" rather than "drawn."
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, modular, futuristic voice using rectilinear geometry and minimal curvature, prioritizing distinctive silhouettes and a strong, engineered presence for display typography.
Distinctive diagonals and notched joins appear in glyphs like A, K, R, and Z, while rounded characters are intentionally squarish, reinforcing a cohesive, system-like design. The lowercase maintains the same geometric vocabulary as the uppercase, emphasizing a display-first personality rather than a text-humanist one.
