A heavy, geometric sans with a consistent stroke weight and generously rounded corners. Letterforms are built from broad, squared shapes that are deliberately interrupted by stencil breaks, producing clear bridges and interior cutouts. Curves (C, O, G, S) read as rounded rectangles with segmented joins, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) are simplified into sturdy, angular strokes. Spacing and rhythm feel compact and uniform, emphasizing solid black mass and crisp negative gaps.
Best suited for display uses such as posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and signage where a strong stencil voice is desired. It also works well for thematic graphics like industrial labels, event titles, and bold UI section headers when set at sizes that preserve the interior breaks.
The stencil segmentation and chunky geometry give a rugged, equipment-like tone that feels industrial and tactical. It reads as purposeful and no-nonsense, with a modern, mechanical flavor that suits labeling and bold statements rather than delicate typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust stencil aesthetic with modern, rounded geometry—balancing strong fill with functional bridges and consistent segmentation for a cohesive, systemized look.
Counters and apertures are intentionally reduced, so readability improves at larger sizes where the stencil bridges and gaps stay distinct. The numerals follow the same segmented construction, maintaining a cohesive system across letters and figures.
