A heavy, geometric sans built from squared forms and sharp chamfered corners. Strokes are consistently thick, with rectangular counters and frequent cut-in notches that create a pseudo-stencil, machined look. Curves are largely suppressed in favor of straight segments and angled joins, producing compact, pixel-adjacent silhouettes with crisp terminals. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s construction, with simplified bowls and apertures that stay boxy and tightly controlled.
Best suited to large sizes where the angular notches and squared counters can be appreciated—headlines, posters, esports or gaming UI accents, album art, and bold branding marks. It can also work for short labels or packaging callouts that benefit from a rugged, technical aesthetic.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, evoking arcade interfaces, sci‑fi hardware labeling, and industrial signage. Its hard angles and carved details read as energetic and technical, with a slightly combative edge rather than friendly neutrality.
The letterforms appear designed to project a futuristic, engineered personality using modular, rectilinear construction and deliberate cut-in details. The goal seems to be maximum visual impact and recognizability in display settings while maintaining consistent geometric rules across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The design relies on interior cutouts and corner chamfers to differentiate similar shapes, giving the alphabet a distinctive rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same modular logic, staying squarish and high-impact, with easily recognizable, display-forward forms.
