A geometric sans with monoline strokes and a distinctly segmented, chamfered construction. Many curves are interpreted as clipped, octagonal arcs, creating small breaks and flat terminals that evoke stencil-like cut-ins, especially in rounded letters and numerals. Proportions are compact with tight apertures and a consistent, engineered rhythm; diagonals are crisp and the joins tend to be sharp rather than softened. The overall texture is clean and even, with a modular feel that reads well in display sizes.
Well-suited to signage, wayfinding, labeling, and interface or product contexts where a technical, fabricated look is desirable. It also works effectively in posters, packaging, and brand marks that want a modern industrial or sci-fi adjacent voice. Best used at medium to large sizes where the chamfered details remain clear.
The font conveys an industrial, technical tone—part scoreboard, part machine labeling. Its angular cut corners and occasional openings add a purposeful, fabricated character that feels modernist and slightly retro-futurist. It suggests precision and systemization more than warmth or personality-driven handwriting.
The design appears intended to blend a straightforward sans structure with a modular, segmented geometry that adds a distinctive engineered identity. By replacing smooth curves with clipped facets and introducing stencil-like interruptions, it creates a display-forward voice while maintaining a consistent, systematized build.
Uppercase forms show the most pronounced clipped-round geometry (notably in C, G, O, Q, S), while lowercase maintains the same logic with simplified bowls and narrow apertures. Numerals follow the same segmented approach, with an especially strong “digital/plate” impression in 0, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9. The consistent stroke width and frequent flat terminals produce a steady color, but the small cut-ins can visually close up at very small sizes.
