A compact, monoline sans with sharply faceted construction: curves are consistently replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, creating an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette across rounds like C, O, and S. Strokes stay even and clean with minimal contrast, and terminals are typically squared or clipped rather than rounded. Proportions are fairly condensed, with tall ascenders/uppercase height and a straightforward, unembellished structure that keeps counters open despite the angular shaping.
Works best where a strong geometric texture is desirable: signage and wayfinding, product labels, packaging, and bold editorial headlines. It also suits UI accents, dashboards, and technical graphics where alphanumeric clarity and a machined aesthetic are priorities, especially at medium to large sizes.
The faceted geometry reads as mechanical and engineered, evoking stamped lettering, equipment labeling, and late-20th-century techno aesthetics. Its crisp corners and steady rhythm give it a matter-of-fact tone that feels functional, slightly retro, and deliberately hard-edged.
Likely drawn to translate sans-serif forms into a consistent faceted system, prioritizing uniform stroke weight and a distinctive angular profile. The goal appears to be a practical, legible display face with an engineered, industrial edge that remains coherent across letters and digits.
The design maintains consistent chamfer logic on both diagonals and near-vertical joins, producing a cohesive "cut" look in bowls and corners. Numerals follow the same angular treatment, supporting a unified typographic color in mixed alphanumeric settings.
