A heavy, angular sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Glyphs sit on a firm grid with mostly uniform stroke thickness and squared-off terminals; round forms (O, C, G, 0) read as octagonal shells with tight, rectangular counters. The lowercase follows the same constructed geometry with a tall x-height and minimal modulation, while diagonal letters (K, V, W, X, Y) use sharp joins and decisive angles. Numerals are similarly faceted and sturdy, keeping consistent widths and strong horizontal/vertical emphasis for a dense, mechanical texture.
Best suited to short, high-contrast settings such as headlines, titles, posters, branding marks, and display text where the faceted construction can be appreciated. It also fits interface labels and game/tech visuals that benefit from a robust, engineered voice.
The overall tone is assertive and machine-made, with a sci‑fi/industrial edge that feels like stenciled hardware labeling or arcade-era display typography. The repeated chamfers and hard corners create a controlled, tactical mood that reads as fast, loud, and high-impact.
The design appears intended to deliver a rugged, geometric display sans with a distinctive faceted signature, prioritizing impact and a constructed, techno-industrial feel over softness or calligraphic nuance.
Spacing and rhythm are driven by the squared geometry, producing a chunky, tightly packed silhouette in text. The faceting is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, which helps the design feel unified even at larger sizes where the corner cuts become a defining detail.
