A rectilinear, modular sans built from straight strokes and crisp 90° corners, with occasional 45° joins for diagonals. Curves are largely avoided; bowls and counters read as squared-off rectangles, producing an engineered, grid-based texture. Stroke endings are mostly blunt and consistent, and the overall rhythm feels tightly constructed, with open apertures and simplified interior shapes that keep letters legible despite the angular construction. Figures follow the same boxy logic, with segmented forms and squared counters that align visually with the capitals.
It works best for display roles where a structured, technical voice is desired—interface labels, dashboards, control-panel style graphics, sci‑fi or retro-tech branding, and poster headlines. It can also suit short passages or captions when a clean, engineered texture is preferred over a neutral humanist sans.
The tone is distinctly technical and retro-digital, evoking screen graphics, instrumentation labels, and industrial signage. Its square geometry gives it a precise, no-nonsense feel, while the stylized constructions add a futuristic, game-like edge.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary, modular sans that prioritizes geometric clarity and a digital/industrial aesthetic, using squared counters and rectilinear construction to create a distinctive, system-like voice.
The design leans on geometric reduction—especially in round letters—so word shapes appear crisp and mechanical. The squared counters and straight-sided forms create strong alignment and a consistent modular cadence in text, particularly noticeable in mixed-case settings and numerals.
