A compact, geometric sans with squared, faceted construction and minimal curvature. Strokes are mostly monolinear with crisp corners, while rounded forms are suggested through chamfered, planar cuts rather than true curves. Counters tend toward rectangular shapes with slightly softened inner corners, and terminals are blunt and orthogonal, producing a rigid, engineered rhythm. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s boxy logic with a tall x-height and simplified, modular forms; numerals follow the same squared, cut-corner vocabulary for a consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, and display settings where its angular details can be appreciated. It also works well for technical branding, packaging, labels, and interface-style graphics that benefit from a structured, engineered look. In longer passages it remains legible, but its distinctive faceting makes it most effective as a characterful accent rather than a neutral text face.
The overall tone feels technical and industrial, evoking signage, machinery labeling, and sci‑fi interface typography. Its sharp facets and rectangular counters create a controlled, no-nonsense personality with a subtle retro-digital edge.
The design appears intended to translate geometric sans proportions into a faceted, fabricated visual language—replacing curves with chamfers to achieve a crisp, mechanical feel. It aims for clarity and consistency across caps, lowercase, and figures while delivering a distinctive industrial voice.
Many glyphs show small notches and inset corners that read like fabricated parts or stamped letterforms, reinforcing a mechanical aesthetic. The design keeps spacing and stroke behavior consistent across letters and digits, giving lines of text a disciplined, grid-friendly cadence.
