A blocky, geometric sans built from uniform strokes and squared-off counters. Letterforms lean heavily on straight segments with crisp 90° corners and occasional 45° cuts, creating an octagonal, modular construction. The proportions are expansive horizontally with compact internal apertures, and the lowercase follows a simplified, near-unicase logic with minimal differentiation and single-storey forms. Numerals and capitals share the same hard-edged rhythm, producing a consistent, grid-friendly texture that stays stable across sizes.
Best suited to display settings where its angular geometry can define a visual identity: headlines, posters, logotypes, and tech-forward branding. It also fits interface labeling and game or hardware-inspired graphics, where a pixel-adjacent, modular rhythm helps establish a digital tone. For long passages, the tight apertures and dense texture suggest using generous size and line spacing for clarity.
The overall tone reads digital and engineered, with a retro-tech flavor reminiscent of arcade interfaces, sci-fi labeling, and industrial control graphics. Its rigid geometry and tight counters feel assertive and functional, emphasizing precision over warmth or handwriting character.
This design appears intended to translate a modular, screen- or grid-inspired construction into a clean sans system, prioritizing repeatable geometry and strong silhouettes. The goal seems to be a distinctive, high-impact face that signals technology and precision while remaining consistently structured across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Diagonal strokes appear selectively (notably in letters like K, V, W, X, Y), while many curves are replaced by squared bowls and chamfered corners, which reinforces a constructed, stencil-like presence without actual breaks. Spacing in running text looks even and mechanical, with a strong horizontal emphasis that makes lines feel dense and “packed.”
