A geometric sans built from hard, faceted strokes, replacing curves with chamfered corners and clipped terminals. The forms lean on octagonal bowls (notably in O/0 and C/G) and straight-sided counters, giving the alphabet a modular, engineered feel. Strokes are monoline with crisp joins, and the proportions are generally broad with open apertures and sturdy horizontals that keep the texture even in all-caps settings. Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, producing a consistent, panel-like rhythm across letters and figures.
Best suited to display roles where its angular personality can lead: headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging. It also fits interface-style applications such as gaming overlays, tech dashboards, and signage-inspired graphics where crisp geometry and high legibility at medium-to-large sizes are beneficial.
The faceted construction reads as technical and utilitarian, with a subtle retro-futurist edge. Its hard geometry evokes machinery, interfaces, and fabricated signage—confident, no-nonsense, and purpose-built rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a futuristic, fabricated aesthetic into a clean sans structure, prioritizing repeatable faceting and consistent chamfers to unify the character set. It aims for a strong silhouette and a mechanical rhythm that stays readable while signaling a distinctly technical tone.
Round letters maintain a consistent corner radius through repeated chamfers, which creates a distinctive pixel-less “digital” silhouette without becoming a grid font. Diagonals are prominent in A, V, W, X, Y and help keep the design energetic despite its heavy reliance on straight segments.
