A heavy, block-built sans with compact counters and broad, sturdy proportions. The letterforms are constructed from simple geometric masses and straight terminals, then interrupted by deliberate cut-in gaps and notches that read like stencil bridges or punched apertures. Curves are simplified and somewhat flattened, with squared-off joins and a strong, uniform stroke presence that keeps the texture dense. Spacing and widths vary by glyph, creating a slightly irregular rhythm while maintaining consistent weight and a cohesive, engineered silhouette.
Best suited for display typography where the stencil-like interruptions can be appreciated—posters, bold headings, branding, labels, and packaging that wants an industrial or urban edge. It can also work for short callouts or signage-style graphics when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels industrial and utilitarian, with a rugged, cut-metal character. The repeated breaks and bridges add a sense of assembly, signage, and machinery, giving the font an assertive, streetwise voice that leans more tactical than friendly.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a bold sans through a stencil/cutout construction, prioritizing impact and a fabricated, mechanical feel over neutral readability. Its engineered gaps and block geometry suggest a focus on distinctive headline texture and strong graphic presence.
The distinctive internal cutouts can reduce clarity at small sizes, especially in rounded letters and figures where the gaps compete with counters. At larger sizes the negative-space details become a defining feature, adding texture and a crafted, fabricated look to headlines and marks.
