A heavy, angular stencil with monoline strokes and decisive, straight-sided geometry. Forms are built from vertical slabs and chamfered corners, with frequent clipped terminals and small triangular notches. Stencil breaks are consistent and prominent—especially in rounds and counters—creating crisp bridges that keep shapes open and legible. Uppercase has a compact, blocky rhythm, while lowercase stays narrow and mechanical, with simplified bowls and short, squared shoulders.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, title treatments, packaging panels, and wayfinding-style signage. It also works well for logos and marks that benefit from a stenciled, industrial voice, especially at medium to large sizes where the bridges remain clearly resolved.
The overall tone is utilitarian and hard-edged, suggesting equipment labeling, signage, and no-nonsense messaging. Its sharp cuts and pronounced stencil gaps give it a rugged, functional character that feels disciplined and directive rather than decorative.
The font appears designed to deliver a robust stencil look with clean, repeatable construction and strong visual presence. Its consistent bridges and compact, angular letterforms prioritize clarity and a pragmatic, industrial texture across both text and numerals.
The design leans on strong verticals and reduced curves, giving many letters a chiseled silhouette. Numerals are similarly constructed with clipped corners and internal breaks, maintaining a consistent texture in sequences and headings.
