A geometric stencil sans with mostly monolinear strokes and deliberately broken outlines connected by crisp bridges. Curves are built from near-circular forms with vertical cuts (notably in C, G, O, Q, e), while diagonals in A, V, W, X, Y are sharp and clean. Terminals are straight and abrupt, counters are open where the stencil breaks occur, and spacing feels even and systematic, giving the alphabet a measured, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, with 0 and 8 especially emphasizing the split, ring-like construction.
Best suited to display applications where the stencil construction can read clearly, such as posters, headlines, product packaging, and environmental or wayfinding graphics. It also works well for short technical labels, UI section headers, or title treatments that benefit from a precise, engineered voice rather than continuous text.
The overall tone reads industrial and technical, with a controlled, schematic feel reminiscent of labeling, equipment markings, and fabricated signage. The stencil breaks add a purposeful, tactical edge that can feel modern and slightly sci‑fi without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to translate traditional stencil lettering into a cleaner geometric system, balancing strong legibility with a distinctly segmented construction. Its consistent breaks and restrained stroke modulation suggest a focus on reproducible, marking-like forms that feel modern and utilitarian.
Distinctive mid-stroke interruptions appear consistently across curved and straight letters, creating recognizable silhouettes at display sizes. The design keeps a clean baseline and cap line presence, and the stencil bridges are thick enough to remain visible, reinforcing a robust, cut-out aesthetic.
