A sharply angular, faceted sans built from straight segments with crisp corners and no true curves. Strokes appear consistently thin and monoline, with many forms resolving into octagonal or trapezoidal counters (notably in rounded letters and numerals). The overall stance is distinctly right-leaning, producing a forward-tilted rhythm across lines. Proportions are compact and geometric, with squared bowls, clipped terminals, and frequent diagonal joins that give letters a constructed, planed look rather than a drawn one.
Best suited to display settings where its faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, titles, posters, album art, game/UI labels, and tech-themed branding. It can also work for short captions or interface microcopy when set large enough to preserve the sharp corners and distinctive diagonals.
The font conveys a futuristic, technical tone—like signage from a sci‑fi interface or a schematic label set in hard-edged geometry. Its consistent faceting and slant create momentum and a slightly edgy, experimental character that feels engineered rather than friendly.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, planar construction into a readable sans, replacing curves with controlled facets while maintaining consistent stroke weight. The pronounced slant and modular joins suggest a goal of adding speed and modernity, making the alphabet feel engineered and system-like.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same angular construction, with simplified, single-storey lowercase shapes and open, linear joins that keep counters readable despite the faceting. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, producing a cohesive alphanumeric texture. The slant is strong enough to read as intentionally dynamic, so word shapes feel brisk and directional rather than static.
