A monolinear sans with a distinctive segmented construction: many strokes are intentionally interrupted, producing small gaps at joins and terminals. Curves are built from clean arcs and straight segments, giving bowls and rounds a slightly modular feel while maintaining smooth overall silhouettes. Proportions are fairly compact and regular, with open apertures and simple, unembellished forms; several glyphs show simplified crossbars or partial strokes that reinforce the systematized look. Numerals follow the same broken-stroke logic, with clear, readable shapes and consistent stroke endings.
Well-suited for branding and identity systems that want a clean sans with a memorable twist, as well as posters, headlines, and short editorial callouts. It can also work for interface labeling and product/packaging graphics where a technical, system-driven feel is desirable, especially at medium to large sizes.
The broken, modular strokes create a contemporary, technical tone—like lettering designed for systems, interfaces, or engineered objects. It reads as minimalist and slightly experimental, balancing clarity with a controlled, schematic aesthetic.
Likely designed to reinterpret a straightforward sans skeleton through a deliberate broken-stroke, almost stencil-like logic, creating a distinctive signature without adding ornament. The goal appears to be a contemporary, engineered personality that stays legible while introducing a recognizable texture.
The recurring gaps and partial strokes act as a defining motif across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a consistent rhythm in text. This motif can add character at display sizes, while at smaller sizes the interrupted joins may become a more prominent texture.
