A rectilinear, modular sans built from straight strokes and right angles, with squared corners and a mostly monolinear feel. The forms are condensed and vertically emphasized, producing a tight rhythm and strong columnar texture in text. Counters are narrow and often boxy, with occasional stencil-like gaps and stepped joints that create a pixel-adjacent, constructed look. Curves are largely avoided, and terminals tend to end in flat cuts, reinforcing the rigid geometry.
Best suited to display settings where its constructed geometry can be appreciated—posters, headlines, brand marks, packaging, and tech-themed graphics. It also works for UI-like titling, game/arcade visuals, and industrial or sci‑fi inspired systems where a compact, structured texture is desired.
The overall tone is technical and industrial, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of arcade UI, CRT-era graphics, and engineered signage. Its strict geometry reads assertive and systematic rather than friendly or expressive, giving it a purposeful, machine-made character.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, engineered aesthetic into a readable sans, prioritizing straight-line construction, compact proportions, and a distinctive mechanical voice. It aims to evoke retro-digital and industrial references while staying consistent enough for short blocks of text and prominent titling.
Several glyphs use distinctive angular notches and segmented connections, which increase character but can also make similar shapes feel closer together at small sizes. The strong verticals and tight apertures create a dense silhouette that benefits from generous tracking and clean, high-contrast backgrounds.
