A heavy, geometric sans with stencil-like breaks that carve clean vertical and diagonal bridges through bowls and strokes. Forms are built from broad, even-weight segments with squared terminals, producing a compact, blocky silhouette and strong negative shapes. Counters are simplified and often interrupted by the stencil gaps, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y, Z) keep crisp angles and consistent stroke heft. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic with sturdy stems and rounded bowls, and numerals echo the same split-counter motif for a cohesive set.
Best suited to high-impact display settings such as posters, headlines, event graphics, and bold brand marks. It also fits packaging, signage, and labels where an industrial stencil voice reinforces themes like manufacturing, logistics, security, or technical products. The strong cuts make it most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the internal bridges read clearly.
The overall tone feels industrial and tactical, with a no-nonsense, engineered presence. The stencil cuts add a coded, mechanical flavor that reads as utilitarian and assertive, suggesting equipment labeling and rugged modern branding rather than delicate editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a constructed, stencil-driven identity, balancing simple geometric letterforms with dramatic internal breaks for instant recognizability. It prioritizes bold presence and thematic character over subtle typographic nuance.
The stencil interruptions are prominent and rhythmic, creating distinctive internal seams that remain consistent across letters and figures. Spacing appears generous enough for display use, and the simplified geometry helps maintain legibility at larger sizes where the cutouts become a key stylistic feature.
