A faceted, geometric sans with octagonal construction and consistent chamfered corners that replace most curves. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with squared terminals and frequent diagonal cuts that create a crisp, machined edge. Counters tend toward polygonal shapes (notably in O/Q/0 and rounded lowercase), and joins are clean and block-like, giving the alphabet a modular rhythm. The lowercase maintains a tall, sturdy presence with simplified forms and minimal curvature, while figures echo the same cut-corner geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited to large sizes where the faceted detailing and octagonal curves can be appreciated—headlines, posters, event graphics, and identity work that needs a technical or industrial flavor. It also fits UI-style titling for games, esports, sci‑fi packaging, and product marks where a strong, machined presence is desirable.
The overall tone reads as futuristic and engineered—more “hardware” than “handmade.” Its sharp facets and wide stance suggest sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and competitive or tactical aesthetics, projecting confidence and a purposeful, utilitarian edge.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded sans into a planar, cut-corner system, prioritizing a consistent geometric recipe across letters and numbers. The goal seems to be bold, high-impact communication with a distinctly technical silhouette rather than quiet, continuous text neutrality.
Distinctive identifying cues include the angular, cut-in bowls on letters like C/G/S and the polygonal round shapes in O/0/Q. The apertures and counters stay relatively open for a display face, but the strong geometry and condensed internal spaces create a dense, high-impact color in text blocks.
