A monoline, geometric sans with a modular, squared construction. Strokes run with even weight and terminate in crisp right angles softened by small chamfered corners, producing an octagonal, circuit-like outline. Curves are largely replaced by segmented bends, and bowls/counters tend toward squared rectangles, giving the alphabet a consistent, engineered rhythm. Proportions are expansive and horizontally oriented, with open apertures and simplified joins that keep the forms clean and schematic in text.
Best suited to display roles such as sci‑fi or tech-themed interfaces, esports and gaming graphics, titles, posters, and branding that benefits from a crisp, engineered aesthetic. It can work for short text blocks when ample size and spacing preserve the angular details and open counters.
The overall tone reads futuristic and technical, with a distinctly digital, HUD-like flavor. Its angular geometry and segmented curves evoke electronics, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling rather than humanist warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a strict geometric system into a readable sans, emphasizing modular consistency, faceted corners, and a contemporary techno character. It prioritizes a constructed, screen-forward personality over traditional typographic softness.
Distinctive chamfers appear at key corners (notably in forms like S, C, G, and U), reinforcing a faceted, constructed feel. Numerals and uppercase share the same modular logic, and the long horizontals and squared counters create a steady, grid-friendly texture at display sizes.
