A heavy, geometric display sans built from straight strokes and crisp planar facets, replacing curves with chamfered corners and octagonal-like counters. The glyphs are compactly constructed with broad horizontals and squared terminals, creating a mechanical, cut-from-plate feel. Apertures are often narrow and internal spaces tend toward rectangular forms, while diagonal elements (notably in V, W, X, Z) keep a sharply engineered rhythm. Lowercase echoes the uppercase structure with similarly faceted bowls and minimal modulation, and numerals follow the same hard-edged, segmented logic.
Best suited to display typography where strong silhouettes are an asset: headlines, posters, game titles, esports or sports branding, UI accents, and tech-themed packaging. It is especially effective in short phrases, wordmarks, and oversized numerals where the faceted construction can be appreciated.
The overall tone is assertive and high-impact, reading as sci‑fi and technology-forward with an arcade/console flavor. Its sharp corners and stencil-like segmentation evoke machinery, speed, and synthetic interfaces rather than softness or handwriting.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, engineered look by translating familiar sans structures into an angular, polygonal system. By keeping strokes consistent and corners chamfered, it aims for a cohesive techno aesthetic that remains legible while emphasizing a hard-edged personality.
At text sizes the tight apertures and angular joins increase visual density, so the design benefits from generous tracking and clear contrast with its background. The faceting creates distinctive silhouettes that stand out in short words, titles, and large-scale settings.
