A geometric outline typeface built from monoline contours with open counters and a consistent hollow construction. Letterforms rely on straight segments, sharp vertices, and frequent diagonal joins, with curves reduced to faceted arcs (notably in C, J, S, and U). Many capitals incorporate doubled verticals or inset parallel lines, creating a rhythmic, architectural stroke echo, while other shapes simplify into diamond- and wedge-like components. Proportions feel compact and slightly irregular by design, with a mix of narrow and wider glyphs and distinctive, emblematic silhouettes that prioritize shape over traditional serif/sans conventions.
Best suited to short display settings where its angular outlines and emblematic forms can read as intentional design: posters, title treatments, branding marks, packaging, and themed interfaces. It can work for larger blocks of text when set generously, but it is most effective in headlines, labels, and other high-impact, decorative applications.
The overall tone reads as Art Deco-meets-futurist: sleek, angular, and slightly cryptic. The runic, sign-like constructions give it an adventurous, game-fantasy or puzzle-code flavor, while the clean outlines keep it airy and modern rather than heavy or distressed.
The font appears designed to translate Art Deco geometry into a hollow, line-drawn system with a slightly encoded, runic twist. Its goal seems to be visual personality and thematic world-building—creating a decorative, futuristic voice through faceted outlines, repeated parallel strokes, and symbol-like letter silhouettes.
In text, the open-outline construction and frequent sharp corners create strong sparkle and patterning, especially in all-caps. The design uses simplified, graphic counters (diamonds and triangular apertures) and occasional asymmetric cuts that enhance the cipher-like character. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with angular bends and open interior space that keeps them visually consistent with the alphabet.
