A modular, square-constructed sans with extended proportions and uniform stroke weight. Letterforms are built from straight segments with sharp corners and frequent right-angle joins, with occasional clipped diagonals for joins and terminals. Counters tend to be rectangular and compact, and several glyphs show stencil-like breaks or open corners that emphasize a constructed, mechanical rhythm. The overall spacing and silhouette feel deliberate and grid-driven, producing strong horizontal presence and high contrast between filled strokes and open interior shapes.
Best suited to display sizes where the angular details and squared counters remain clear—headlines, posters, branding marks, and tech-themed packaging. It also fits UI labels and game or device graphics where compact, high-impact letterforms help create a futuristic interface tone.
The font projects a distinctly techno, game-interface sensibility—precise, engineered, and slightly aggressive. Its geometric rigidity and cut-in details evoke sci‑fi UI labeling, industrial signage, and retro arcade aesthetics rather than conversational text.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact techno voice through grid-based construction, squared curves, and purposeful cut-ins. It prioritizes distinctive silhouette and thematic character over traditional text softness, aiming for recognizable, system-like lettering in display contexts.
Round letters are largely squared off (notably in forms like O/Q/C), and diagonal usage is restrained, reserved for select joins (such as in K, V, W, X, and the Q tail). The lowercase follows the same modular logic, with simplified bowls and angular terminals that keep the texture consistent across mixed-case settings.
