A monoline slab-serif design with crisp, squared forms and frequent chamfered corners that create an octagonal, engineered silhouette. Strokes keep an even thickness with minimal modulation, while serifs are straight and blocky, often feeling like bracketless slabs. Curves are handled as faceted arcs rather than smooth rounds (notably in O/Q/0 and similar counters), giving the alphabet a constructed, modular rhythm. Spacing reads open and orderly, and the overall texture stays clean and airy despite the firm, rectilinear detailing.
Best suited to display sizes where the chamfered details and slab terminals can read clearly: headlines, posters, packaging, and signage. It can also work for editorial pull quotes or short passages when a technical or industrial flavor is desired, though the angular construction will be most rewarding at moderate-to-large sizes.
The face projects a technical, drafted tone—precise, measured, and slightly retro. Its faceted geometry and hard terminals evoke industrial labeling and instrument markings, balancing a classic serif presence with a schematic, utilitarian edge.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif familiarity with a more mechanical, modular construction, prioritizing crisp geometry and distinctive, faceted counters. Its consistent stroke weight and squared terminals suggest a goal of clarity and authority, with a crafted, vintage-industrial character.
Uppercase forms feel particularly architectural, with straight-sided bowls and clipped corners that emphasize structure over calligraphic flow. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with a segmented, sign-paint-like clarity that favors distinct silhouettes.
