A slanted monoline sans with faceted construction: curves are replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, producing octagonal bowls and polygonal counters. Strokes maintain an even, light line weight with consistent joins, giving the alphabet a crisp, plotted feel. Proportions read as compact and disciplined, with squared terminals and a steady rhythm that stays uniform across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
This font is well suited to interfaces, dashboards, labeling systems, and technical or schematic graphics where a crisp, engineered voice is desirable. It can also work as a distinctive headline or poster face for futuristic or retro-tech themes, and for code-style or terminal-inspired compositions where consistent character spacing supports alignment.
The overall tone feels technical and instrument-like—more schematic than expressive—while the angled facets add a subtle sci‑fi and retro-digital flavor. Its precise, polygonal geometry suggests engineered lettering rather than hand-written warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted drawing language into a readable text face, preserving a consistent monoline stroke and uniform spacing while replacing traditional curves with planar segments. The goal seems to be a technical aesthetic that remains coherent across extended text and alphanumeric sets.
Round forms such as O, Q, 0, 8, and 9 emphasize multi-sided contours, and diagonals are used decisively in letters like A, K, V, W, X, and Y. The sample text shows clear separation between characters and a consistent forward slant, helping maintain a clean cadence in longer lines.
