A rectilinear, geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp corners, with rounded forms largely replaced by squared counters and boxy curves. Strokes are monoline and terminate in flat ends, creating a crisp, mechanical rhythm. Proportions lean compact with generous internal counters in letters like O, D, and P, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) are simplified into straight, angular constructions. The lowercase echoes the same modular, squared logic, with single-storey forms and minimal curvature, producing a consistent, grid-like texture in text.
Best suited to display contexts where its angular construction can be a defining graphic element—headlines, posters, packaging/branding accents, and tech-themed identities. It can also work for UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding-style signage where compact, squared letterforms support a structured, systematic look.
The overall tone feels technical and engineered, with a retro digital/arcade flavor that reads as purposeful and no-nonsense. Its squared geometry suggests signage, instrumentation, or interface labeling rather than warmth or handwriting.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, modular sans with a distinctly squared skeleton—prioritizing geometric consistency and a technical voice over organic softness. It aims to evoke digital-era utility and industrial clarity while remaining legible in short to medium strings.
In running text, the repeated right angles create a strong horizontal/vertical cadence and a distinctly pixel-adjacent presence even at larger sizes. The numerals follow the same squared construction, pairing well with the caps for data-heavy settings.
