A heavy, geometric sans with sharply faceted construction and chamfered corners that replace curves with planar cuts. Counters are mostly rectangular and compact, with occasional stencil-like interruptions (notably in some lowercase forms), producing a rugged, engineered texture. The stroke endings are blunt and squared, and the overall rhythm is tightly packed, giving the alphabet a strong, modular presence. Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, with simplified, blocky forms built from straight segments.
Well suited for short, high-contrast applications such as headlines, posters, title cards, packaging callouts, and bold wordmarks. It also fits themed interfaces and motion graphics where a strong, angular, techno-leaning voice is desired.
The font projects a hard-edged, mechanical attitude with a distinctly retro-digital flavor. Its faceted silhouettes and dense, punchy color feel suited to high-impact messaging—confident, sporty, and game-like rather than delicate or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a rugged, faceted geometry—evoking machined parts and arcade-era display lettering while staying cleanly sans in structure. Its construction prioritizes silhouette strength and graphic texture over neutral body-text readability.
In text, the aggressive cornering and compact apertures create a crisp, staccato cadence; the distinctive lowercase shapes add personality and a slightly constructed, cut-out feel. The design reads best when given ample size and spacing so the internal cutouts and small notches remain clear.
