A geometric sans with sharply chamfered corners and faceted, near-rectilinear construction. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments, producing octagonal bowls and crisp terminals. Strokes stay even and clean, with open counters and a tidy, modular rhythm; shapes such as O/0 and C/G read as squared-off rounds, while diagonals (A, V, W, Y) remain straight and disciplined. Lowercase forms are compact and functional, with similarly cut joins and corners, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case setting.
Works well where a precise, technical flavor is desired: interface labels, dashboards, product marking, and environmental graphics. It can also add a crisp, futuristic edge to headings in posters, packaging, and brand systems, particularly when set at medium-to-large sizes where the faceting is clearly visible.
The faceted geometry conveys a technical, engineered tone—reminiscent of equipment labeling, digital readouts, and hard-surface industrial design. Its sharp corners and planar bowls feel contemporary and slightly sci‑fi, while remaining restrained enough for practical, utilitarian typography.
Likely designed to translate the look of machined or plotted geometry into a readable sans, using consistent chamfers to unify the alphabet and numerals. The aim appears to be a distinctive, system-like texture that stays orderly in extended text while offering a clearly modern, technical signature.
Round characters maintain consistent corner cut sizes, helping the family of shapes feel systematized. Numerals follow the same chamfered logic, supporting a cohesive alphanumeric voice in interfaces and signage.
