A condensed, monoline display sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Vertical stems dominate, with narrow bowls and counters that read as elongated polygons rather than round forms. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off or beveled, and joins are sharp, giving letters a drawn-with-a-ruler precision. The rhythm is tight and vertical, with consistent stroke weight and a slightly mechanical, modular feel across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display typography where its narrow width and angular facets can create strong vertical presence—headlines, posters, title cards, logotypes, and signage. It can also work for short UI labels or environmental graphics when a technical, retro-modern voice is desired, but its thin strokes and intricate corners are most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is sleek and engineered, evoking Art Deco signage and retro-futurist industrial lettering. Its faceted construction feels crystalline and schematic, lending a cool, composed mood that reads as modernist and technical rather than friendly or casual.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted aesthetic into a condensed alphabet that feels both architectural and decorative. By minimizing curves and emphasizing chamfers, it aims to deliver a distinctive, period-tinged futuristic look while keeping letterforms clean and systematic.
The lowercase follows the same narrow, angular logic as the caps, producing a unified texture in mixed-case settings. Numerals and punctuation maintain the faceted language, helping lines of text keep a consistent, linear sparkle at display sizes.
