A sharply constructed, monoline sans built from straight segments and crisp angles, with frequent open corners and a faceted, almost wireframe approach to bowls and counters. The strokes maintain an even, hairline presence while the overall structure leans consistently forward, giving the forms a swift, oblique rhythm. Many glyphs use simplified, polygonal outlines (notably in rounded letters and numerals), and several joins are intentionally left unclosed, emphasizing a lightweight, drawn-with-a-pen geometry. Spacing appears moderately open, and the short x-height makes lowercase feel compact against the tall ascenders and long, slanted stems.
Best suited for display settings where its angular, technical personality can lead—such as sci‑fi themed titles, tech branding, product marks, posters, and short headline lines. It can also work as an accent face in interfaces or packaging when used sparingly and at sizes that preserve the delicate stroke weight.
The design reads as futuristic and engineered, evoking CAD sketches, sci‑fi interfaces, and streamlined industrial graphics. Its angular reductions and open constructions create a sense of speed and precision rather than warmth, with a clean, minimalist tone.
The font appears designed to reinterpret a sans skeleton through a geometric, polygonal construction, prioritizing a sleek, forward-leaning cadence and a schematic look over conventional continuous curves. The open-corner detailing and simplified bowls suggest an intent to feel lightweight, precise, and unmistakably contemporary.
The alphabet shows a consistent diagonal stress and a preference for straight-line solutions even where curves are expected, producing distinctive silhouettes for characters like O, Q, S, and 2–9. The sample text suggests the style is most effective when set with generous size and leading, where the thin strokes and open joints remain clear and intentional.
