A heavy, geometric sans with simplified, rounded forms and a distinctive segmented construction. Many letters are split by a recurring vertical keyline cut, creating stencil-like counters and deliberate interruptions in bowls and stems. Curves are largely circular and consistent, terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is built from bold blocks with precise cutouts rather than calligraphic modulation. The figures match the same system, using centered splits and chunky, high-impact silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where the segmented motif can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for signage or labels in controlled settings, particularly when a bold, industrial look is desired and readability can be supported by scale and contrast.
The repeating splits and modular geometry give the typeface a mechanical, engineered personality with a strong retro-futurist flavor. It reads as assertive and graphic, evoking labeling, equipment markings, and bold display typography where pattern and presence matter as much as legibility.
The design appears intended to transform a straightforward geometric sans into a highly recognizable display face by introducing a consistent vertical split and stencil logic across the alphabet. The goal seems to be maximum visual identity and repeatable patterning while keeping letterforms simple and sturdy.
The internal cuts create a strong signature pattern across text, but they also reduce interior space in smaller sizes, especially in letters with tight counters. Spacing appears designed for display: compact, rhythmic, and visually driven, with the cut motif providing a consistent ‘stripe’ through words and numbers.
