A faceted, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with angled planes. Forms are compact and vertically oriented, with mostly uniform stroke thickness and consistent chamfering at terminals and joins. Counters tend to be rectangular or octagonal, and many letters use notched or stepped cuts that create a crisp, mechanical rhythm. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic as the uppercase, keeping simple bowls and minimal modulation, while numerals share the same beveled, segmented geometry for a cohesive texture in text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where the angular construction can be appreciated—headlines, titles, logos, game/interface graphics, and tech-themed packaging. It can also work for compact signage or labels where a sharp, machine-made voice is desired, though it will read most confidently at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels engineered and synthetic, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, arcade hardware, and utilitarian signage. Its sharp facets and hard terminals project decisiveness and speed, giving lines of text a rhythmic, almost pixel-adjacent bite without actually becoming a bitmap style.
The design appears intended to translate a rigid, machined aesthetic into a legible sans by systematically faceting curves into planar cuts. The consistent chamfers and monoline construction suggest a focus on creating a cohesive techno voice that stays readable while remaining highly stylized.
Diagonal strokes are used sparingly and feel tightly controlled, while interior apertures and counters are kept open enough to maintain clarity at display sizes. The repeated chamfer motif provides strong stylistic unity across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a distinctive, slightly retro-tech color on the page.
