A rectilinear, monoline sans built from straight strokes and squared corners, with an overall modular, grid-like construction. Curves are largely replaced by chamfered or stepped forms, producing boxy counters and angular joins. Terminals tend to be flat and hard-edged, and the spacing rhythm feels engineered rather than calligraphic, emphasizing crisp verticals and right angles.
Best suited to display contexts where its angular construction can be appreciated: interface labels, HUD-style graphics, titling, posters, and tech-forward branding. It can work in short text for thematic applications, but the rigid geometry and squared counters make it most effective at larger sizes and in high-contrast layouts.
The tone is technical and machine-like, with a distinctly retro-digital flavor reminiscent of early computer graphics and sci‑fi interfaces. Its sharp geometry and simplified shapes convey an industrial, utilitarian attitude that reads as futuristic and controlled rather than expressive or soft.
The font appears designed to evoke a modular, digital construction while remaining a coherent sans for contemporary display use. Its squared forms and chamfered “pseudo-curves” suggest an intentional nod to retro computing and industrial signage aesthetics.
The design leans on squared apertures and corner cuts to suggest round forms, which heightens the pixel/terminal aesthetic. In text, the consistent stroke behavior creates a clean, schematic texture, while the more idiosyncratic constructions of certain glyphs add a bespoke, display-oriented character.
