A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and crisp chamfered corners, replacing curves with planar facets and octagonal turns. Strokes maintain a largely even thickness, with frequent cut-ins and notches that create an intermittent, slightly stenciled texture in counters and joins. Proportions are compact with a steady cap height and a moderate x-height; apertures are generally narrow, and interior spaces are often squared off. The overall rhythm is constructed and modular, with sharp terminals, tight curves implied by faceting, and occasional segmented details (notably in letters like S and in some lowercase forms) that add visual bite.
Well-suited for display applications such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and identity work where a sharp, technical character is desired. It can also work for game UI motifs, sci‑fi/industrial packaging, and short callouts or labels where the stenciled facets enhance recognizability.
The font conveys a hard-edged, engineered tone—equal parts retro arcade and utilitarian machinery. Its faceted geometry and clipped corners suggest precision, fabrication, and a slightly militaristic or sci‑fi interface aesthetic. The notched detailing adds a sense of motion and circuitry, giving text a distinctive, assertive voice.
The design appears intended to translate a conventional sans skeleton into a faceted, machined form, emphasizing chamfers, planar “curves,” and purposeful cutouts. The goal is a high-impact display face that feels fabricated and system-like, while remaining legible through consistent stroke weight and disciplined geometry.
Because many rounded letters are rendered as multi-faceted shapes, the typeface reads best when its angular construction is allowed to show—at larger sizes or with ample tracking. The distinctive notches and segmented joins create strong personality but can reduce clarity in dense paragraphs or at very small sizes.
