A stylized sans with monoline strokes and a distinctly cut, notched construction. Many forms appear partially “split” by narrow vertical or diagonal voids, creating a stencil-like rhythm without traditional stencil bridges. Curves are built from bold, rounded segments with occasional sharp, blade-like terminals, while straight strokes stay clean and steady. Proportions are slightly extended and the overall fit is open, giving the alphabet a broad, airy texture despite the internal cutouts.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, branding marks, and other display applications where the cutout motif can be appreciated. It can also work for packaging or event graphics that want a retro-modern accent, while longer text benefits from generous size and spacing.
The repeated incisions and segmented curves give the face a retro-futurist, Art Deco–adjacent tone. It feels graphic and theatrical, with a playful edge that reads as designed and intentional rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to create a memorable, logo-friendly sans that stands apart through systematic internal cutouts and segmented geometry. It prioritizes visual identity and rhythm over neutrality, offering a distinctive voice for display typography.
Distinctive details include slit-like counters and interrupted bowls that make letters such as O/Q and numerals like 6/8/9 feel emblematic. The design relies on consistent cut angles and recurring negative shapes, which become a strong signature at display sizes but can introduce visual busyness in dense settings.
