A modular sans built from short, separated horizontal bars with rounded ends, creating a segmented, scanline-like texture across each glyph. Strokes are constructed in stacked rows with small gaps, producing a semi-stenciled silhouette that stays legible while remaining visibly quantized. Letterforms lean geometric with squared counters and simplified joins; diagonals and curves are approximated through stepped bar placements. Spacing reads open and airy because the broken strokes introduce internal whitespace, and the overall proportions feel broad with steady, uniform stroke presence.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where the segmented rhythm can be a feature—display headlines, posters, and sci‑fi or techno titling. It also fits UI accents in games or digital-themed interfaces, as well as branding moments that benefit from an electronic, readout-like texture. For dense body copy, it will read more as a stylistic texture than a neutral text face.
The font conveys a distinctly electronic, instrument-panel mood—part arcade display, part terminal readout. Its dashed construction suggests motion and signal noise, giving text a dynamic, slightly glitchy energy while staying clean and controlled. The tone is playful and futuristic with clear retro-computing associations.
The design appears intended to translate pixel/display aesthetics into a smoother, print-friendly form by using repeated dash modules with rounded ends. It prioritizes a recognizable digital texture and strong horizontal cadence while maintaining clear letter differentiation for display and interface-style use.
The segmented treatment is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with a strong horizontal rhythm that becomes especially noticeable in longer lines of text. Rounded bar terminals soften the mechanical structure, preventing the design from feeling overly harsh while preserving a high-tech character.
