A heavy, all-caps-forward stencil design with broad, rectangular stems and sharply cut counters. The letterforms are built from geometric masses—straight-sided bowls, flat terminals, and triangular or wedge-like notches—interrupted by consistent stencil bridges that create clean breaks through verticals and curves. Curves are treated as segmented arcs rather than smooth calligraphy, giving the face a rigid, constructed rhythm. Spacing reads sturdy and deliberate in text, with strong, poster-friendly silhouettes and clear interior cutouts that keep forms recognizable at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where strong stencil character is an asset—posters, headlines, branding accents, packaging, and bold signage or wayfinding. It holds up well in short phrases and large-scale typography where the bridges and notches remain distinct and intentional.
The overall tone feels industrial and operational, like markings applied to equipment, crates, or signage. Its crisp interruptions and hard geometry project a no-nonsense, engineered character with a slightly vintage, print-stencil attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact stencil voice that feels manufactured and repeatable, combining utilitarian breakpoints with a stylized geometric construction for attention-grabbing display typography.
The stencil breaks are prominent and stylistically integrated, often appearing as diagonal or triangular removals that add motion without softening the structure. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, reinforcing a consistent system across letters and figures.
