This typeface is built from straight, monoline strokes with crisp 90° corners and frequent chamfered cuts that substitute for curves. Counters tend toward squared and open shapes, and many glyphs have slightly segmented joins that read like bent metal or plotted linework rather than drawn pen forms. Proportions are compact with a relatively small x-height and long ascenders, while capitals feel tall and narrow. Overall spacing looks even and orderly, producing a clean grid-like rhythm in text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its geometric facets can be appreciated: headlines, title treatments, posters, and tech or concept-driven branding. It can also work for UI labels and interface-style graphics at larger sizes, where the sharp joints and open forms stay clear.
The overall tone is technical and systematic, with a cool, engineered feel. Its faceted geometry evokes CAD sketches, sci‑fi interfaces, and retro-digital signage, giving text a precise, instrument-like character rather than a humanist warmth.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a sans skeleton through planar, polygonal decisions, replacing curves with straight segments and chamfers to create a futuristic, constructed aesthetic. It prioritizes a consistent plotted-stroke logic and modular rhythm, aiming for a distinctive, engineered voice in display typography.
Several characters lean on distinctive angular constructions (notably the diagonals in K, M, N, W, X and the squared bowls in B, D, P, R), which adds personality but also makes the face more display-oriented. Numerals keep the same rectilinear logic, reinforcing a consistent, modular look across alphanumerics.
