A chunky, block-built sans with heavy, rounded outer corners and frequent triangular notches and cut-ins that give many letters a stencil-like, engineered feel. Forms are compact and high-impact, with simplified geometry, broad strokes, and minimal visible contrast. Counters are generally small and rounded, and several glyphs use distinctive internal cuts (notably in diagonals and joins) that create a faceted rhythm across the set. Numerals match the same dense, cut-out construction for consistent color and weight in display use.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where a bold silhouette and distinctive construction carry from a distance. It also works well for signage and label-style graphics that benefit from a tough, cut-out aesthetic, especially when set with generous spacing and ample size.
The overall tone is assertive and industrial, like lettering cut from metal or molded from rubber, while the rounded corners keep it friendly rather than severe. The repeated notches add a playful, slightly retro-futurist character that feels at home in bold, attention-grabbing settings.
This design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that balances industrial toughness with approachable rounded geometry. The consistent notching and simplified shapes suggest a deliberate goal of creating a recognizable, cut-letter look for branding and large-scale typographic statements.
In text samples the dense weight and small counters create strong visual texture, favoring larger sizes and short lines. The distinctive cut-ins help separate similar shapes and add recognizable personality, but they also make the face feel purposefully stylized rather than neutral.
