A blocky, angular display face built from rectangular strokes and squared counters, with many glyphs appearing as partial frames or boxed outlines. Strokes are punctuated by irregular internal knockouts and sliced segments that create a distressed, mechanically cut look rather than smooth continuous contours. Terminals are mostly flat and orthogonal, with occasional notches and stepped joins that emphasize a modular, constructed rhythm. The uppercase set reads as rigid and geometric, while the lowercase maintains the same hard-edged construction with compact bowls and frequent internal cutouts that keep the texture lively across words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, game titles, esports or tech branding, and product or packaging graphics that benefit from a rugged, engineered feel. It can also work for interface-like callouts (labels, stats, serials) where a modular, cut-out aesthetic is desired, but is less comfortable for long-form reading due to its dense internal detailing.
The overall tone feels futuristic and industrial, like lettering designed for control panels, machinery labels, or a stylized digital interface. The broken interiors and offset slices add a glitch-like tension that reads as energetic and slightly abrasive, pushing the font toward action, gaming, and tech-forward branding.
The design appears intended to merge a geometric, box-built foundation with irregular internal knockouts, producing a constructed, high-tech display voice. The goal seems to be strong silhouette recognition at large sizes while adding visual character through segmented cuts that suggest wear, interference, or machined stencil work.
Because the internal cutouts vary from glyph to glyph, large passages gain a busy, high-frequency texture; it performs best when spacing and line breaks give the shapes room to breathe. Numerals match the same squared, segmented construction, making the set visually cohesive for codes, model numbers, and short UI-style strings.
