A monoline, geometric sans built from simplified strokes and segmented curves. Many letters use split stems and broken bowls, creating a deliberately constructed, almost modular structure with clear gaps that read as stencil-like cut-ins. Curves are clean and round where present, but frequently interrupted by straight terminals or vertical breaks, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. Lowercase forms keep a tall x-height feel and simplified construction, while figures and capitals maintain the same pared-down, assembled logic.
Best suited for display use where its segmented construction can be appreciated—headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or wayfinding-style titling when a futuristic, engineered look is desired, but the broken strokes make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone feels modernist and architectural, with a cool, technical personality. The systematic gaps and split strokes add an experimental edge that can read futuristic and slightly playful, while still staying controlled and orderly. It conveys precision more than warmth, leaning toward a designed-object aesthetic.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary sans that departs from conventional continuous strokes, using deliberate gaps and modular parts to create a signature, crafted texture. It aims to balance geometric clarity with an unconventional, experimental construction for strong visual identity.
The distinctive internal breaks and doubled-stem motifs become a strong identifying feature in running text, creating a patterned texture that is more decorative than neutral. Round characters (like O/Q/0/8) retain smooth geometry but are typically modified by cuts or angled joins, reinforcing the constructed theme.
