A monoline, faceted sans with straight segments that approximate curves through angled planes, giving many round shapes an octagonal feel. Strokes are extremely fine and consistent, with a slight rightward slant and clean, open joins that keep counters airy. Proportions are moderately tall with compact bowls and generous interior space; diagonals are crisp and geometry-driven, producing a lean, engineered rhythm across words and lines. Numerals and capitals follow the same polygonal construction, maintaining a coherent, wireframe-like texture.
Best suited to display settings where the faceted geometry can be appreciated: headlines, posters, logotypes, product branding, and interface labels with a tech-forward aesthetic. It can also work for short captions or infographics when set with ample size and spacing, rather than dense body copy.
The overall tone is clinical and future-facing, evoking technical drafting, digital interfaces, and lightweight sci‑fi labeling. Its sharp facets and delicate strokes read as precise and controlled rather than expressive or warm.
The letterforms appear designed to translate geometric, polygon-based construction into a clean sans word shape—suggesting an intention toward a futuristic, engineered look that stays minimal and unobtrusive while still feeling distinctive through its planar corners and slanted stance.
Because the outlines are so thin, the design relies on negative space and consistent angles more than stroke modulation. The faceted construction is especially evident in rounded letters and digits, where corners replace arcs; this creates a distinctive sparkle at larger sizes but a more fragile presence when reduced.
