A tightly condensed, monoline sans with sharp chamfered joins and planar facets that replace most curves. Vertical stems dominate, with narrow apertures and a tall, linear silhouette that keeps counters compact and rhythmic. Rounded forms like O/C/G are rendered as clipped octagons, and terminals often end in blunt, angled cuts, giving the alphabet a crisp, constructed feel. Spacing and widths vary by glyph, but the overall texture remains even and upright, with a consistent stroke presence and a slightly mechanical cadence.
Best suited for headlines, posters, signage, and branding where a narrow footprint and strong vertical rhythm are beneficial. The faceted construction also works well for packaging, editorial titling, and interface labels that want a technical or industrial flavor without relying on heavy stroke contrast.
The faceted geometry and compressed proportions create a cool, engineered tone that reads as industrial and slightly retro-futurist. Its sharp corners and clipped curves add a controlled aggressiveness, making it feel precise and intentional rather than friendly or informal.
The design appears intended to translate a utilitarian condensed sans into a more graphic, constructed voice by carving curves into facets and sharpening terminals. It prioritizes a distinctive silhouette and compact set width for impactful display use.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same angular logic, with simple, straight-sided bowls and minimal modulation. Numerals follow the same condensed, chamfered construction, contributing to a cohesive display texture in headings and short lines of text.
