A geometric sans with squared proportions and softly rounded corners, built from thick strokes that are opened up by a consistent inline cut-out. Curves are rendered as rounded-rectangle forms, with counters tending toward squarish bowls and generous interior space. Terminals are mostly flat and orthogonal, while select diagonals and notches introduce a slightly mechanical, constructed feel. The inline voids create a two-tone outline effect that keeps dense letters readable and adds a crisp, engineered rhythm across text.
Best suited for logos, headlines, posters, and short promotional lines where the inline cut-out detail can be appreciated. It also works well for tech and gaming UI titles, packaging callouts, and signage-style labels that benefit from a compact, engineered look.
The overall tone feels futuristic and gadget-forward, with a subtle arcade/console energy. Its cut-out construction suggests circuitry, stenciling, or panel labeling, giving it a modern, technical personality rather than a warm or handwritten one.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-impact display voice while avoiding solid black mass by carving an internal channel through the strokes. This creates an inverted/outlined impression that maintains strong presence and adds a distinctive technical texture for branding and interface-forward applications.
In running text the inline openings can visually link across words, producing a distinctive striped texture at larger sizes. The squarish curves and notched joins read especially clearly in capitals and numerals, reinforcing a display-first character.
