A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Bowls and rounds resolve into octagonal shapes, with consistent stroke thickness and squared terminals that keep the texture even and mechanical. Proportions are broadly compact with open counters and clear interior shapes, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) stay sharp and stable. Numerals follow the same chamfered logic, giving 0 and 8 a distinctly beveled, sign-like silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where the angular, beveled geometry can read as intentional and iconic. It also works well for signage and wayfinding, UI labels, and packaging that benefit from a technical, industrial voice and crisp letterforms.
The overall tone is technical and no-nonsense, evoking labeling, instrumentation, and engineered surfaces. Its faceted geometry adds a subtle sci‑fi and sports-stencil flavor without becoming decorative, projecting clarity, toughness, and precision.
Designed to translate a modern sans skeleton into a faceted, machined aesthetic, prioritizing consistency of chamfers and straight segments over true curves. The aim appears to be a clean, robust display face that remains readable while signaling technology and engineered precision.
The repeated chamfer motif creates a strong rhythm in both caps and lowercase, producing a distinctive word shape at larger sizes. In paragraph-like settings it maintains legibility through open counters and straightforward construction, while the angular rounds make it feel more display-oriented than a neutral text grotesk.
