A geometric, monoline sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Bowls and rounds resolve into octagonal outlines, while terminals end in crisp angled cuts, producing a consistent, engineered rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Spacing is airy and the drawing stays clean and open, with simplified joins and a blueprint-like economy of form that keeps counters readable even in narrow letter shapes.
Best suited to short display settings where the faceted geometry can be appreciated: technology branding, product marks, interface headings, game and film titling, and schematic or packaging-style labeling. It can work for brief text in larger sizes, especially when a clean, technical voice is desired.
The tone is sleek and forward-looking, evoking industrial labeling, interface typography, and retro-futurist sci‑fi graphics. Its cool, precise construction feels utilitarian and machine-made rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded sans structure into a straight-edged, modular system with consistent corner clipping, delivering a contemporary sci‑fi/industrial look while preserving familiar Latin letterforms for legibility.
Distinctive angular construction shows most strongly in O/C/G/Q and in the segmented S and 2, while the lowercase keeps a single-storey, pared-back vocabulary that reinforces the technical feel. The light stroke and open counters favor clarity over warmth, and the faceting creates a subtle modular texture when set in lines of text.
