A heavy, geometric sans with sharply faceted corners and squared, planar curves that read like octagons rather than rounds. Strokes stay essentially uniform, with frequent chamfers and notched joints that create a cut-metal, stencil-like rhythm. Counters are compact and rectangular, apertures are tight, and terminals are abrupt, giving the letters a dense, mechanical silhouette. Proportions run on the wide side overall, while some glyphs narrow (notably i/l) to preserve a rigid, modular spacing pattern.
Best suited to display settings where strong shapes and a technical mood matter most: titles, poster typography, esports or game branding, UI headers, labels, and packaging. It can work for short bursts of copy or navigation text when set with generous size and spacing, but its dense interior shapes are most comfortable at larger sizes.
The faceted geometry and clipped corners project a distinctly technological, machine-built tone. It feels at home in sci‑fi and game interfaces, evoking arcade cabinet lettering, military hardware markings, and industrial wayfinding. The overall effect is assertive and utilitarian, prioritizing impact and structure over softness.
The design appears intended to translate a modern sans into a hard-edged, planar system: corners are consistently chamfered, curves are replaced by straight facets, and the palette of shapes stays modular across cases and figures. The goal seems to be a cohesive, high-impact voice that reads as engineered and screen-forward.
In the sample text, the tight apertures and compact counters increase the dark color on the line, especially in combinations like E/F/S and in the lowercase with single-story forms. The numerals follow the same angular logic, with strong, squared forms that emphasize a segmented, display-like aesthetic.
