A compact, block-built sans with squared bowls, flat terminals, and a strongly modular construction. Strokes are predominantly rectilinear with occasional diagonal joins (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) that read as sharp wedges rather than smooth curves. Counters tend to be small and geometric (often rectangular), and many letters feature cut-ins and notches that create a stencil-like, machined rhythm. The overall texture is dense and even, with a slightly condensed feel in some glyphs and more open forms in others, producing a deliberate, engineered irregularity while staying visually consistent.
This design suits short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, product labels, and bold packaging. It also works well for tech-leaning or industrial-themed graphics, game/arcade-inspired titles, and signage-style layouts where a strong modular silhouette is desirable. For longer text, it’s better used sparingly as an accent due to its dense counters and heavy texture.
The font projects a rugged, utilitarian tone with a distinctly retro-tech flavor. Its squared geometry and notched details evoke industrial labeling, arcade-era display type, and military/transport signage aesthetics. The voice is assertive and functional, favoring impact and character over softness or neutrality.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver a powerful, engineered look built from simple geometric parts. The notches and cut-ins suggest a deliberate reference to stenciled marking and mechanical fabrication, designed to feel tough, graphic, and immediately legible at display sizes.
The lowercase maintains the same modular logic as the uppercase, with single-storey a and g and angular terminals throughout. Numerals are similarly boxy and segmented, aligning well with the letterforms for tight, graphic compositions. At smaller sizes the tight counters and internal cutouts may fill in, so it reads best when given enough size or contrast to keep the interior shapes clear.
