Author's note

ProtoSans02 by Roman Gornitsky is a free geometric techno display font built from spare, squared forms. Uniform strokes and abrupt right angles give the letters the logic of a modular drawing system, with open joins and clipped sections interrupting otherwise simple outlines. The result feels precise and deliberately unfinished.

It can frame electronic music posters and game interfaces with the same stripped-back construction, yet its architectural shapes also suit exhibition graphics and experimental magazine covers. For a technology label or hardware brand, the block-built lettering can become the product identity itself, echoing circuit paths, screen grids, and industrial diagrams rather than serving as neutral text.
