A geometric, faceted sans with octagonal construction and consistent chamfered corners that replace most curves. Strokes are even and sturdy, with squared terminals and occasional notch-like joins that create a slightly rugged, machined edge. Counters tend toward rectangular or clipped shapes, and round letters (O, C, G, S) read as cut-corner polygons rather than true curves. The rhythm is strictly even and grid-friendly, with uniform character widths and simple, high-clarity silhouettes across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited to interface labels, control-panel style layouts, and any setting that benefits from rigid alignment and a mechanical aesthetic. It also works effectively for posters, packaging, and branding that wants an angular, retro-tech voice, especially at medium to large sizes where the faceting becomes a defining feature.
The overall tone feels technical and industrial, with a retro digital edge reminiscent of arcade screens, equipment labeling, and utilitarian interfaces. The faceting and blunt terminals give it a purposeful, engineered personality that reads more functional than friendly.
The design appears intended to translate a hard-edged, manufactured look into a systematic alphabet that stays consistent in grid-based composition. Its clipped corners and polygonal curves suggest a focus on durability, legibility, and a distinctive techno-industrial character.
Lowercase forms echo the caps with the same faceted logic, keeping texture consistent in running text. Numerals are bold and legible, with angular apertures and clear differentiation, reinforcing a display-ready, signage-like presence.
