A modular sans built from straight strokes and chamfered corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Forms skew toward squarish bowls and octagonal counters, producing a consistent, engineered rhythm across letters and figures. Terminals are flat and decisive, with strong right angles and occasional diagonal cuts that keep round shapes feeling mechanical rather than soft. The overall color is even and steady, reading cleanly in blocks of text while retaining a distinctive, constructed silhouette.
Well suited to coding environments, terminal-style interfaces, and UI labels where consistent character rhythm and structured alignment are desirable. It also works effectively for technical posters, industrial-themed branding, packaging callouts, and signage systems that benefit from a crisp, engineered look.
The tone is technical and utilitarian, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of industrial labeling and early computer display aesthetics. Its angular geometry feels pragmatic and efficient rather than expressive or calligraphic, giving text a sturdy, instrument-like character.
The design appears intended to deliver a practical, grid-friendly sans with a distinctive faceted construction, balancing straightforward readability with a recognizable technical personality.
The faceting is applied systematically, so rounded characters adopt the same chamfer logic as straight-sided ones, yielding cohesive texture. Numerals match the letterforms’ squared geometry, and the design maintains a clear, high-contrast silhouette that favors structured layouts and grid-based composition.
