A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp, planar cuts in place of curves. Terminals and corners are consistently chamfered, creating a faceted silhouette with small triangular notches and clipped diagonals that add a machined feel. Counters are compact and often squared-off, while joins stay rigid and orthogonal, giving the letters a block-constructed rhythm. The lowercase follows the same modular logic as the uppercase, with simple bowls and arms rendered as angular segments, and figures match the overall squared, cut-corner construction for strong consistency in headlines.
Best suited to display work where the faceted geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title cards, packaging accents, and bold brand marks. It can also serve interface or labeling roles in game and tech-themed designs, provided it’s used at sizes that preserve the small cut details.
The face reads as mechanical and assertive, with a retro-digital edge that suggests hardware labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial signage. Its sharp facets and dense shapes project strength and control, leaning more toward engineered precision than friendly neutrality.
The design appears intended to translate a squared, industrial construction into a contemporary display sans, replacing curves with beveled planes to create a crisp, fabricated aesthetic. Its consistent chamfers and modular stroke logic prioritize impact and a distinctive techno voice over text-centric neutrality.
The faceting introduces distinctive inner notches and cut-ins on several glyphs, which boosts character at larger sizes but can make fine details merge at small sizes. The overall texture is compact and emphatic, producing a dark, attention-grabbing typographic color in blocks of text.
