A very light, monoline serif design with square, unbracketed slab-like terminals and a distinctly geometric construction. Round forms are rendered as faceted, near-octagonal shapes, giving C, O, Q, and zero a polygonal rhythm rather than smooth curves. Serifs are crisp and rectilinear, with fine hairline stems and clear, open counters; joins and corners stay sharp, producing a slightly plotted or engineered feel. Proportions are moderately narrow to regular, with straightforward capitals and smallcaps-like economy in the lowercase, and numerals that follow the same angular logic (including a slashed zero).
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and titling where the faceted geometry can be appreciated. It can also work for branding and packaging that want an engineered or schematic flavor, and for signage or labels that benefit from a crisp, constructed look.
The overall tone feels technical and architectural, like lettering derived from drafting tools or plotted signage. The faceted rounds add a subtle eccentricity, balancing an orderly, precise voice with a lightly retro, schematic character.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a slab-serif model through a geometric, tool-made lens, replacing curves with consistent facets while keeping serif structure straightforward and square. The goal seems to be a distinctive, technical texture that stays readable while signaling precision and design-forward character.
In text, the hairline strokes and sharp corners create a delicate color on the page, while the polygonal bowls remain a consistent signature feature across letters and figures. The thin strokes and crisp slabs suggest best performance at larger sizes or in controlled print/display settings where the fine details can hold.
