This is a geometric sans with round, circular bowls and open counters paired with crisp, angular terminals. Several letters show characteristic wedge-like notches and diagonal cutaways, creating a sharp, technical rhythm against otherwise smooth curves. Stroke widths feel mostly even, with clean joins and a slightly expanded footprint that helps it read as sturdy and display-oriented.
It works best for logos, headlines, posters, packaging, and editorial titling where its notched details can be appreciated. It can also suit tech, automotive, sport, or entertainment branding that benefits from a sleek, modern tone. For long-form body text, its strong stylistic cuts may feel attention-grabbing, but it can perform well in short bursts, UI headings, and callouts.
The font projects a bold, graphic confidence with a slightly futuristic, engineered tone. Its rounded geometry and deliberate cut-ins add a sense of motion and modernity, giving text a distinctive, stylized voice without feeling playful or casual.
The design appears intended to take familiar geometric sans proportions and add a signature cutaway motif for recognizability. It aims for strong silhouette clarity at larger sizes, balancing smooth rounded forms with sharp incisions to create a contemporary, engineered feel.
The numerals and capitals share the same cutaway language, helping maintain consistency across mixed-case settings. The overall spacing and rounded forms keep words cohesive, while the repeated diagonal notches introduce a patterned texture that becomes part of the font’s identity.
