A squared, modular sans built from straight strokes and sharp corners, with occasional chamfered joins that soften the geometry without adding curves. Counters are mostly rectangular and tightly controlled, producing compact, blocky silhouettes; several glyphs show deliberate cut-ins and notches (notably in forms like S, G, and the numerals), giving a constructed, almost machined feel. The lowercase is similarly boxy with minimal modulation, a single-storey a, and simplified bowls; the i/j use square dots and the j descends with a pointed terminal. Overall spacing and rhythm read mechanical and even, favoring strong horizontal and vertical alignment over calligraphic nuance.
Best suited for display settings where its geometric, constructed personality can lead: headlines, branding marks, packaging titles, posters, and tech or gaming visuals. It can also work for short UI labels or on-screen elements where a strong, squared voice is desired, rather than extended body text.
The tone is assertive and technical, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi signage, and retro arcade or industrial labeling. Its squared details and engineered apertures make it feel functional and synthetic rather than conversational or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver a futuristic, engineered sans with a modular, signage-like system—prioritizing strong rectangular structure, distinctive notches, and a cohesive grid rhythm for impactful display typography.
Some characters lean into unconventional constructions (e.g., the Q with an internal tail-like notch, and numerals built from segmented, rectangular strokes), which enhances distinctiveness but can introduce a slightly coded or display-forward texture in longer lines. The crisp corners and frequent right angles create high visual uniformity and a strong grid-based presence.
