A crisp, geometric sans built from straight strokes and sharp corners, with frequent octagonal turns and squared-off terminals. Curves are largely avoided; bowls and rounds resolve into faceted rectangles, producing a modular, grid-friendly silhouette. Stroke thickness stays consistent, while counters tend to be tight and rectangular, giving the face a compact, engineered rhythm. Uppercase forms are tall and structured, and the lowercase follows the same angular logic with simplified, blocky constructions.
Best suited to display roles where its angular construction can be appreciated—headlines, logotypes, posters, packaging, and tech or game-adjacent graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or instrumentation-style readouts when a crisp, engineered aesthetic is desired, rather than long-form text.
The overall tone reads technical and machine-made, with a retro-futuristic, arcade-like edge. Its faceted geometry suggests precision and control, leaning more utilitarian than friendly, and more digital than organic.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, digital sensibility into a clean vector sans, emphasizing repeatable modules, sharp joins, and compact counters for a cohesive, system-like look.
Diagonal strokes (notably in K, V, W, X, Y, and Z) are rendered as hard, planar angles rather than smooth joins, reinforcing the pixel-adjacent, modular feel. Numerals and punctuation share the same squared geometry, helping maintain a consistent system-like voice across mixed text.
