A monoline, squared sans with slab-like, square-ended terminals and consistent stroke weight. Curves are largely minimized into chamfered, octagonal rounds, giving counters and bowls a geometric, engineered feel. Proportions are fairly open with generous apertures, and the overall rhythm is clean and evenly spaced, with simple construction and minimal contrast. Figures and capitals follow the same squared, chamfered logic, producing a cohesive, system-like texture in text.
Well-suited to headings, interface labels, wayfinding, and packaging where a crisp, technical voice is desired. It also works effectively for posters and brand marks that benefit from a geometric, industrial aesthetic, and for short-to-medium text where a clean, consistent rhythm is important.
The font conveys a technical, industrial tone—precise, functional, and slightly retro-futuristic. Its chamfered geometry suggests signage, equipment labeling, and digital-era design, balancing friendliness with a no-nonsense, engineered character.
The design appears intended to translate a squared, engineered geometry into a readable, contemporary alphabet, using chamfered rounds and flat terminals to create a durable, system-like look. The consistent stroke and simplified forms prioritize clarity and a distinctive technical identity across letters and numerals.
The squared construction remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, which helps maintain a uniform texture at display sizes. The restrained details and flat terminals keep shapes legible while emphasizing a distinctive, machined silhouette.
