A tall, tightly set sans with a consistent monoline stroke and strongly rectilinear construction. Curves are minimized into squared counters and rounded-rectangle turns, giving many glyphs a boxed, modular feel. Terminals are generally flat and abrupt, with occasional small notches or step-like joints that emphasize a constructed, drawn-by-ruler look. The proportions are narrow and vertical, and the overall rhythm is crisp and evenly weighted, with punctuation and figures matching the same linear, architectural logic.
Best suited to display roles where condensed width and a technical voice are advantages: headlines, posters, product branding, and futuristic or industrial-themed graphics. It can also work for short UI labels, signage, and interface-like readouts where a schematic, high-structure texture is desired, though long paragraphs may feel rigid due to the narrow, angular forms.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic, with a distinct retro-digital flavor reminiscent of instrument panels, schematics, and minimalist sci-fi titling. Its restrained geometry reads cool, controlled, and engineered rather than expressive or handwritten.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-efficient sans with a distinctly engineered aesthetic—built from straight strokes and squared curves to project precision and modernity. It prioritizes a strong visual identity and vertical economy over traditional humanist softness.
The uppercase set appears especially rigid and monolithic, while the lowercase introduces a few distinctive constructions (notably in multi-stem letters) that keep the texture lively without breaking the system. Numerals and capitals share a similarly narrow footprint, helping headlines and data-like strings maintain a consistent, vertical cadence.
