A sharply faceted sans with monolinear strokes and planar, chamfered joins that substitute angled segments for curves. Counters and bowls skew octagonal, and terminals often end in clipped, diagonal cuts, giving letters a machined, modular feel. Proportions are condensed with consistent vertical emphasis; spacing reads orderly and grid-like, supporting crisp setting in display sizes while maintaining clear differentiation across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited for headlines, posters, titles, and brand marks where a technical, faceted voice is desired. It can also work for packaging callouts, labels, and UI display text (e.g., game menus or dashboard-style interfaces) where its angular geometry reinforces a structured, engineered look.
The overall tone is technical and engineered, evoking electronic interfaces, industrial labeling, and retro-futurist signage. Its angular construction and clipped corners project a cool, precise personality with a hint of arcade or hardware aesthetic.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a utilitarian sans through a faceted, chamfered construction—reducing curves into clean planes for a machine-cut aesthetic. It prioritizes a distinctive geometric texture and consistent angular rhythm for impactful, contemporary display typography.
Diagonal facets are used systematically on rounded forms (notably in O/Q/0 and C/G), creating a coherent octagonal rhythm across the set. Numerals follow the same geometry, with squared-off curves and clear, straight-sided silhouettes that suit coded or instrument-style readouts.
