A heavy, geometric sans with consistent stroke weight and a robust, block-built silhouette. Stencil breaks are applied systematically across rounds and joins, producing crisp interior bridges and notches that keep counters open while interrupting continuous strokes. Curves tend toward circular segments with straight-sided terminals, and diagonals are sharp and clean, giving the design a machined, cut-out feel. Spacing and proportions read as compact and sturdy, with uppercase forms feeling particularly solid and lowercases simplified for clarity.
Best suited to display typography where the stencil texture can be a feature: posters, headlines, product packaging, and industrial-style labels. It also works for wayfinding or environmental graphics when a rugged, cut-metal aesthetic is desired, and for branding that leans into technical or militaristic cues.
The overall tone is industrial and utilitarian, evoking labeling, equipment markings, and functional wayfinding. The repeated stencil bridges add a tactical, engineered character that feels authoritative and no-nonsense rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong stencil voice with clean geometry and consistent weight, prioritizing impact and reproducibility while maintaining legibility through open counters and disciplined, repeatable breaks.
The stencil logic is prominent even at text sizes, creating a rhythmic pattern of breaks that becomes a defining texture across words. Numerals and uppercase forms emphasize clarity through simplified geometry and large, open counters where possible, supporting quick recognition in display settings.
