A heavy, geometric sans with strong verticals, blunt terminals, and consistent stroke thickness throughout. The design is defined by prominent stencil interruptions—often a central vertical split or bridge cuts that leave crisp negative gaps—creating a segmented rhythm across rounds and straight strokes alike. Proportions are broad and blocky, counters are simple and open, and diagonals are cut with sharp, decisive angles, keeping the texture dense and high-contrast against the page.
Works best in display contexts where the stencil motif can be part of the message: posters, packaging, labels, wayfinding-style graphics, event titles, and bold branding moments. It is well suited to themes like industrial design, tactical/utility aesthetics, workshop or maker identities, and any layout needing punchy, segmented letterforms. Use with generous tracking and ample size for maximum clarity of the stencil gaps.
This typeface projects an industrial, utilitarian mood with a deliberate sense of toughness and constraint. Its repeated breaks and solid black presence give it a coded, technical flavor that can feel militaristic, mechanical, and built-for-purpose rather than expressive or delicate. Overall it reads as assertive and functional, with a slightly retro-signage attitude.
The letterforms appear designed to emulate stencil or cutout construction, prioritizing structural continuity while preserving recognizable shapes through consistent bridge placement. The goal seems to be strong display impact and quick identification, with a repeatable, system-like logic to the breaks that makes the alphabet feel engineered rather than drawn.
The stencil cuts are especially noticeable in rounded characters and numerals, producing distinctive internal gaps that create a repeating visual beat across words. The lowercase maintains the same constructed, modular logic as the uppercase, helping mixed-case settings keep a consistent, machined texture.
