A rectilinear, monoline sans built from straight strokes and crisp right angles, with an overall condensed footprint. Curves are minimized into squared corners and boxy bowls, giving counters a near-rectangular geometry. Terminals are blunt and consistent, and the rhythm feels modular and schematic rather than calligraphic. Uppercase forms are tall and rigid, while lowercase echoes the same constructed logic with simplified, angular joins and compact apertures.
Best suited for headlines, short text, and display settings where its angular construction can define a strong visual identity. It also works well for UI labels, instrument-style readouts, packaging, and environmental graphics that benefit from a technical, structured tone. For longer passages, larger sizes and generous spacing help maintain readability as the squared forms create a dense texture.
The font projects a technical, machine-made voice—precise, no-nonsense, and slightly retro-futurist. Its squared construction and uniform stroke treatment evoke digital displays, industrial labeling, and engineered systems where clarity and structure matter more than warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, constructed sans voice with a modular, engineered look—prioritizing sharp geometry, consistency, and a tech-forward silhouette over conventional humanist softness.
The character set shown emphasizes straight-sided bowls (notably in O/Q and rounded letters), producing a distinctive boxy texture in text. Diagonals appear sparingly but sharply (V/W/X/Y), adding a brittle, engineered feel. Numerals follow the same geometric discipline, reading like signage or device UI figures.
