A monoline, geometric sans built from straight segments and clipped corners, replacing most curves with faceted, octagonal geometry. Strokes are consistently thin with minimal modulation, and terminals are usually blunt or slightly tapered. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as polygonal rings, while diagonals in K, V, W, X and Y are crisp and evenly weighted. Lowercase forms keep the same faceted logic, with single‑storey a and g; counters are open and shapes are airy, producing a light, open texture in text.
Works best for display settings where the faceted silhouettes can be appreciated: headings, poster titling, sci‑fi or tech interface mockups, and event/wayfinding graphics. In longer text, it is most effective at larger sizes and with generous tracking to preserve the delicate stroke and open counters.
The faceted construction and hairline strokes give a technical, futuristic feel—like signage derived from plotter lines, CAD drawings, or wireframe lettering. It reads clean and controlled rather than expressive, projecting a measured, engineered tone.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, planar construction into a readable sans, emphasizing consistent angles and clipped corners to create a distinctive, modern voice. It prioritizes a coherent faceted system across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, aiming for a crisp, engineered aesthetic suitable for contemporary display use.
Several glyphs use simplified, almost single‑stroke constructions (notably r, t, f, and some diagonals), which contributes to a schematic look but also makes similar shapes rely on context at smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, with an angular 0 and a segmented 8 that reinforces the faceted theme.
