A geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with clean chamfers that create an octagonal, faceted contour. Strokes are consistently thin and even, with a crisp, linear rhythm and mostly open apertures. Proportions feel constructed and measured, with squared counters and simplified joins that emphasize hard edges over organic flow; numerals follow the same cut-corner logic for a cohesive set.
Well-suited to interface labels, dashboards, and wayfinding where crisp geometry and a technical voice are desirable. It also works for tech-oriented branding, product packaging, and poster headlines that benefit from a distinctive angular texture, while remaining readable in short paragraphs and captions.
The overall tone is technical and forward-looking, with a schematic, engineered clarity. Its faceted geometry reads as modern and slightly retro-digital, suggesting machinery, interfaces, and precision instruments more than editorial warmth.
The design appears intended to translate a clean sans skeleton into a faceted, polygonal system—keeping monoline simplicity while introducing a signature chamfered edge. The consistent corner treatment suggests an aim for a modular, industrial aesthetic that stays clear in practical typography.
The chamfering is applied consistently across round forms (like O/C/G and 0/8/9), giving the face a distinctive “cut metal” silhouette. At text sizes the sharp terminals and polygonal bowls remain legible but keep a distinctly constructed texture, especially in mixed-case settings.
