A modular, segmented display face built from dense vertical bars, with occasional short horizontal dash clusters used to complete corners and internal apertures. Letterforms are largely squared and monoline in feel, with strong repetition of parallel strokes creating a distinctive “scanline” texture. Counters and notches are carved as small rectangular gaps, giving many glyphs a stenciled, cut-out construction. Proportions read broad and blocky overall, while individual glyph widths vary to fit their structures, and curves are expressed through stepped, pixel-like approximations.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where the striped construction can be appreciated: headlines, posters, album covers, game/tech branding, and packaging accents. It can also work for UI-style labels or title cards when used at generous sizes and with sufficient spacing to keep the internal cut-outs clear.
The overall tone is technical and machine-made, evoking barcode graphics, terminal readouts, and retro arcade UI. The striped texture adds a sense of motion and signal interference, making the font feel energetic, engineered, and slightly dystopian.
The design appears intended to merge pixel-era quantization with a barcode-like vertical-stripe motif, producing a distinctive textured silhouette while remaining legible as a bold display alphabet. The segmented joins and stenciled counters suggest an aim for a mechanical, engineered voice rather than a smooth geometric one.
In text, the repeating vertical strokes create a strong pattern across lines, so spacing and rhythm become a major part of the look. The segmented detailing is most prominent at small features like joints and apertures, where the dash clusters read as intentional “digital” articulation rather than smooth strokes.
