A geometric, block-constructed sans with heavy, even strokes and a squared-off silhouette. Letterforms are built from straight segments with frequent chamfered corners, creating an octagonal feel rather than true curves. Counters tend to be rectangular and tight, and joins are crisp and mechanical, producing a compact, high-impact texture in text. Diagonals appear in key places (such as V/W/X and parts of K/R), but the overall construction favors horizontal and vertical emphasis for a rigid, engineered rhythm.
Best suited for display settings where impact and a technical mood are desired—headlines, poster titles, esports/gaming graphics, product marks, and sci‑fi UI-style labels. It can work for short bursts of copy, but the dense, angular construction is most effective when not set in long paragraphs.
The font reads as futuristic and machine-made, with a distinctly techno/arcade energy. Its sharp corners and modular geometry give it a hard-edged, utilitarian tone that feels suited to sci‑fi interfaces, industrial branding, or game aesthetics rather than casual editorial use.
The letterforms appear intentionally engineered from a modular, straight-line system with chamfered corners, aiming for a futuristic, industrial display look that stays consistent across the set and reads strongly at larger sizes.
The design leans on consistent chamfers and squared terminals to maintain a coherent ‘cut-metal’ visual logic across caps, lowercase, and numerals. In running text, the dense interior spaces and broad forms create a bold, attention-grabbing voice best used with generous tracking and larger sizes.
