A monoline, geometric sans built from segmented strokes and frequent intentional breaks. Many letters lean on straight verticals with rounded terminals and partial bowls, creating a modular construction where counters are often implied rather than fully enclosed. The rhythm is narrow-and-open in places due to separated stems and off-set components, giving the text a distinctive, engineered texture. Numerals and lowercase follow the same system, with simplified curves and cut-away joins that keep stroke weight even throughout.
Best suited to display applications where its segmented construction can be appreciated: headlines, brand marks, posters, packaging, and short UI/wayfinding labels. For long passages, larger sizes and generous spacing help preserve clarity and keep the broken joins from visually merging or disappearing.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, like interface labeling or industrial wayfinding rendered through a minimalist, schematic lens. Its broken forms add an experimental, coded character—precise and modern rather than friendly or traditional.
The font appears designed to reinterpret a neutral sans skeleton through a modular, broken-stroke system, prioritizing a distinctive techno aesthetic while keeping stroke weight restrained and consistent. It aims for a constructed, architectural feel that signals modernity and experimentation.
At smaller sizes the deliberate gaps and fragmented joins can reduce continuity, especially in running text, but at display sizes those separations become the defining feature. The design relies on consistent stroke logic and repeated vertical elements, producing a strong visual identity across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
