A sharply faceted sans with planar cuts that replace curves, producing octagonal bowls and clipped terminals throughout. Strokes stay largely uniform, with crisp inside corners and straight-sided counters that read cleanly at display sizes. Proportions run compact and tall, with a steady vertical rhythm; round letters like O/C/G are constructed from chamfered segments, while diagonals in A/V/W/X are clean and mechanical. Lowercase maintains the same angular construction and simple joins, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case settings.
Best suited to headlines, logos, short brand phrases, and packaging where its angular construction can read as a stylistic feature. It also fits sports-inspired graphics, event collateral, and wayfinding or interface-style labeling when a crisp, technical voice is desired.
The overall tone is hard-edged and engineered, suggesting machinery, digital interfaces, and precision signage. Its geometry also carries a retro-futurist flavor—part arcade, part utilitarian—giving headlines a brisk, assertive presence.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, chamfered construction into a straightforward sans for impactful display typography. By systematically replacing curves with facets and keeping stroke weight steady, it aims for a distinctive industrial/tech aesthetic while remaining legible in concise text runs.
The faceting is applied consistently, creating a distinctive silhouette in both capitals and numerals; characters such as 0/8/9 emphasize polygonal counters, while E/F/T keep blunt, squared-off strokes. Spacing appears tuned for compact setting, yielding an even, gridlike texture in sample text.
