A heavy, block-based sans with softened corners and frequent chamfered cuts that create a segmented, modular silhouette. Stencil-like breaks appear consistently across straight and curved strokes, producing clear internal bridges and open counters. Forms are compact and geometric, with squared terminals, occasional angled joins (notably in diagonals), and a steady, even rhythm across the alphabet and numerals. The overall texture is dense and high-impact, with distinctive cutouts that remain legible at display sizes.
Best suited for display applications where the stencil breaks become a defining graphic feature: posters, bold headlines, product packaging, and environmental or wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for logos and badges that benefit from an industrial, fabricated look, especially at medium to large sizes where the internal bridges stay crisp.
The letterforms evoke an industrial and tactical tone—functional, engineered, and no-nonsense. The repeated breaks and hard-edged geometry suggest labeling, equipment markings, and utilitarian signage, giving the font a rugged, manufactured feel.
The design appears intended to translate a stencil-marking concept into a modern, rounded-corner, modular system—prioritizing strong presence and distinctive cutout details while maintaining straightforward readability for short text and prominent labels.
Capitals read like a contemporary stencil with rounded rectangles and small notches; lowercase echoes the same system, keeping the voice consistent in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, reinforcing a cohesive, stamped/marked aesthetic.
