A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broadly squared counters. Strokes are thick and uniform, with soft corners and simplified joins that keep shapes compact and solid. A defining feature is the consistent stencil-like breaks and notches that cut through bowls and stems, creating a segmented rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals and capitals read particularly stable and wide, while spacing feels tight and punchy, emphasizing mass and presence.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logos, and bold product or event branding where the segmented stencil texture can be appreciated. It can work for large-format wayfinding or label-style graphics, but the internal breaks make it less ideal for small sizes or lengthy body copy.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a distinctly industrial and stenciled attitude. The repeated cut-ins give it a rugged, engineered feel—more functional and assertive than refined—evoking sports branding, workwear, and machinery markings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with an industrial stencil flavor, combining rounded-rectangle forms with deliberate cutouts to create a distinctive, hardwearing display voice.
The stencil breaks are treated as a core design motif rather than occasional detailing, so they remain prominent even in longer text. The rounded geometry keeps the texture friendly enough to avoid harshness, but the density and segmentation still dominate the color on the page.
