A rectilinear sans with a modular, squarish construction and mostly uniform stroke thickness. Corners are predominantly hard and right-angled, with occasional clipped or chamfered joins that keep forms from feeling purely geometric. Counters tend to be boxy and narrow, apertures are tight, and curves are minimized in favor of straight segments, giving the alphabet a compact, engineered rhythm. Spacing reads slightly mechanical and the proportions vary by glyph, reinforcing the constructed, system-like feel.
Best suited to display settings where its angular construction can read clearly: headlines, posters, game titles, tech branding, and interface labels. It can also work for short bursts of copy or packaging callouts, but the tight apertures and boxy counters make it less ideal for long-form text at small sizes.
The overall tone is techno and utilitarian, evoking electronic displays, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its rigid geometry and squared counters create a cool, controlled mood with a subtle retro-computing edge rather than a humanist warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a digital/industrial aesthetic into a cohesive sans alphabet by prioritizing straight segments, squared counters, and a modular drawing system. It aims for high impact and a distinctive, technical voice rather than neutral text readability.
Several glyphs lean into segmented, almost stencil-like structure (notably in forms with open joins and squared bowls), which increases character but can reduce legibility at small sizes. The numerals and capitals carry strong signage presence, while the lowercase keeps the same modular logic for a consistent, device-like voice.
