A geometric sans with a strict, even stroke and a strongly squared construction. Curves are largely replaced by chamfered, faceted turns, producing rounded-rectangle bowls and clipped arcs in letters like C, G, O, and S. Terminals are predominantly flat and orthogonal, with a consistent rhythm and cell-like spacing that reinforces a structured, engineered feel. The lowercase is compact and straightforward, with single-storey forms (notably a and g), tall, simple ascenders, and clear, boxy numerals that match the overall geometry.
Well suited to interfaces, device screens, dashboards, and compact labeling where consistent character widths and clear, geometric silhouettes help alignment. It also works for technical documentation, diagrams, and signage systems that benefit from an engineered, modular look.
The faceted geometry and disciplined spacing give the typeface a technical, instrument-like tone. It reads as functional and no-nonsense, with a subtle retro-computing or hardware-label flavor rather than a soft, humanist warmth.
Likely drawn to provide a clean, grid-based sans for structured text, emphasizing predictable spacing and a faceted construction that preserves clarity while adding a distinctive, technical personality.
Distinctive identifying shapes include a Q with a centered vertical tail, a squared, open-top 4, and a z formed from straight strokes with crisp diagonals. Punctuation and text rhythm in the sample maintain a uniform, grid-friendly cadence suited to dense UI-like settings.
