A heavy, geometric sans built from modular, rounded-rectangle forms with frequent internal cut-ins that split strokes into distinct segments. Curves are broad and softened, corners are consistently rounded, and strokes keep an even thickness throughout, giving the letterforms a solid, monolinear presence. Counters tend to be simplified and partially closed by the characteristic breaks, producing compact silhouettes and a rhythmic pattern of vertical and horizontal partitions across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited to large-scale applications where the segmented details are clearly visible: headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging titles, and signage or wayfinding with an intentionally stylized voice. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes, but extended body copy will feel dense and may lose legibility as sizes decrease.
The segmented construction reads as industrial and engineered, with a strong retro-futurist tone reminiscent of stenciling, signage, and product marking. Its bold, modular rhythm feels confident and graphic, leaning more toward statement-making than neutrality.
The design appears intended to merge a geometric sans foundation with a cut/stencil logic, creating a modular display face that stands out through pattern and silhouette rather than contrast or ornament. The consistent rounding and systematic breaks suggest an emphasis on visual cohesion and a constructed, machine-made aesthetic.
The repeated internal gaps create a distinctive texture in words, especially in rounded letters (like O/C/G) and in characters with bowls and shoulders (like B/P/R). At smaller sizes the segmentation can reduce clarity, while at larger sizes it becomes the defining visual motif and adds a distinctive patterning across lines of text.
