A modular, rectilinear sans built from straight strokes and right angles, with squared terminals and frequent intentional gaps that create a stencil-like, segmented construction. Curves are largely replaced by stepped corners, giving counters and bowls a blocky, pixel-adjacent geometry. Proportions vary noticeably by character, while verticals stay dominant and strokes remain largely uniform, producing a crisp, mechanical rhythm. Spacing reads fairly open in text, with distinctive notch cut-ins and clipped joins contributing to a strongly patterned texture.
Best suited to display settings where the segmented geometry can read clearly—headlines, posters, game/UI titling, and tech-oriented branding. It can also work for short labels or interface-style callouts; for longer passages, larger sizes and generous leading help preserve legibility.
The font conveys a digital, machine-coded attitude—part arcade display, part industrial labeling. Its broken strokes and angular forms feel utilitarian and slightly mysterious, suggesting sci‑fi interfaces, encryption, or retro-future hardware.
The design appears aimed at producing a distinctive, interface-like voice using modular, broken stroke construction and squared geometry. Its emphasis on notches and separated segments prioritizes a coded, futuristic aesthetic over conventional text smoothness.
Many glyphs use discontinuities (separated bars, inset corners, and cut-out joints) as a defining motif, which increases character distinctiveness but also adds visual noise at small sizes. The stepped construction creates a strong grid logic that remains consistent between uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
