A heavy, geometric sans built from broad, simple shapes with rounded corners and large internal bowls. Many glyphs feature consistent diagonal incisions or slit-like cuts that read as a stencil or carved detail, breaking counters and strokes in a deliberate, rhythmic way. Curves are smooth and circular (notably in O/C/G), while straight-sided letters (E/F/H/N) remain rigid and modular, producing a strong, poster-like silhouette. Lowercase forms keep the same chunky construction with a tall, prominent x-height and simplified terminals; figures follow the same blocky geometry and occasional cut details for a unified set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, graphic voice is desired. It can work well for signage, packaging, and event titles, especially in contexts that benefit from a stencil/industrial aesthetic. For longer passages, larger sizes and generous line spacing will help preserve readability.
The overall tone is assertive and graphic, blending industrial stencil energy with a slightly retro display feel. The repeated incisions add tension and motion, giving the face a engineered, architectural character that feels bold, urban, and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that differentiates itself through systematic cut-ins and breaks, creating a recognizable signature while maintaining a simple geometric backbone. Its construction prioritizes silhouette strength and visual identity over neutral text economy.
The distinctive slashes and internal breaks become more apparent at larger sizes, where they read as intentional patterning rather than texture. At smaller sizes, the heavy strokes and interrupted counters can reduce clarity, so spacing and size selection will strongly influence legibility.
