A sharply angular, faceted sans with strokes built from short straight segments in place of curves. The letters have a consistent forward slant and a largely monoline construction, with pointed terminals and occasional spur-like corners that create a jagged silhouette. Proportions are compact with tight internal counters and a slightly uneven, hand-cut rhythm; widths vary from glyph to glyph, contributing to a lively, non-mechanical texture in text. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, with octagonal bowls and chiseled diagonals that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display contexts where its faceted texture can read clearly—posters, album/film titles, game interfaces, and branding marks that benefit from an edgy, constructed feel. It can work for short bursts of copy or labels, but longer passages will be more effective at generous sizes and spacing.
The overall tone is tense and kinetic, suggesting speed, grit, and a slightly hazardous, sci‑fi edge. Its sharp geometry and scratchy regularity evoke signage, game UI, and hand-made industrial stenciling rather than polished corporate minimalism.
The design appears intended to translate a chiseled, polygonal construction into a readable sans, emphasizing straight-segment geometry and forward motion. It prioritizes distinctive texture and thematic character over neutrality, aiming for an assertive display voice that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
In continuous text the repeated facets create a strong zig-zag pattern along stems and diagonals, which is attention-grabbing but can become visually busy at smaller sizes. Uppercase forms feel emblematic and sign-like, while lowercase maintains the same angular voice with more compact, simplified shapes.
