A sharply faceted, geometric sans built from straight strokes and acute angles, with curves consistently replaced by planar joins. Stroke weight is even throughout, while terminals often end in pointed wedges or clipped diagonals that create a chiseled rhythm. Many forms use triangular or diamond-like counters (notably in letters like O and Q), and diagonals dominate the construction of A, V, W, and X, reinforcing a crystalline, zig-zag texture in words. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed overall, with simplified, high-contrast silhouettes that stay legible through strong, distinctive letter shapes.
Best suited to display settings where its angular personality can be featured: title treatments, album or book covers, gaming/genre branding, and short UI labels. It works especially well when paired with minimal layouts or quieter companion text that lets the faceted letterforms stand out.
The tone is evocative of runes, fantasy inscriptions, and sci‑fi interface lettering—stylized, assertive, and a bit ominous. Its repeated angles and gem-cut counters give it a ritualistic, emblematic feel that reads more “symbolic” than conversational.
The font appears designed to translate an inscription-like, rune-inspired voice into a modern geometric system, using consistent monoline strokes and repeated facets to create a cohesive “carved” look. The goal seems to be strong atmosphere and instant recognizability rather than neutrality for extended reading.
The design relies on pronounced diagonals and uncommon internal geometry, which makes individual glyphs highly characterful and logo-friendly but also visually busy in long passages. Punctuation and numerals follow the same straight-edged logic, helping mixed text maintain a consistent, carved aesthetic.
