A heavy, all-caps-forward sans with chunky geometric construction and unmistakable stencil breaks. Strokes are consistently thick and largely uniform, with verticals and horizontals dominating and only limited curvature in bowls and terminals. The stencil bridges are clean, straight-edged cutouts that split counters and joins, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm across letters and figures. Uppercase forms feel tall and authoritative; lowercase is simplified and sturdy, keeping counters open where possible while preserving the same cut-and-bridge logic. Numerals are bold and sign-like, with strong silhouettes and minimal interior detail beyond the stencil separations.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging panels, and signage where the stencil texture can read clearly. It also works well for thematic graphics—warnings, wayfinding, or product labeling—where a durable industrial impression is desired.
The overall tone is rugged and functional, evoking labeled equipment, crates, and industrial signage. Its assertive mass and cut-out detailing give it a tough, no-nonsense voice with a slightly vintage, workwear edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch while retaining the practical stencil language associated with sprayed or cut lettering. It prioritizes bold silhouettes, easy recognition, and a consistent system of bridges that reads as purposeful construction rather than decorative distressing.
The stencil interruptions are prominent enough to become a defining texture at text sizes, creating a repeating pattern of vertical splits and notches. Wide diagonals (notably in letters like V, W, X) add sharp energy, while more compact letters (E, F, T, I) reinforce a disciplined, modular feel.
