A slanted, heavy sans with compact counters and a broad, low-contrast stroke system. The defining feature is a consistent set of stencil-like breaks—most noticeably in rounded letters and several numerals—creating segmented bowls and cut terminals while keeping overall letterforms clean and geometric. Curves are sturdy and simplified, with broad joins and minimal modulation; straight strokes maintain a firm, uniform presence. Spacing reads as tight-to-moderate for the weight, and the overall texture is dense and energetic in running text.
Best suited for headlines and short display settings where the stencil gaps can be appreciated at size—posters, bold branding moments, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding-style graphics. It can also work for tech-themed UI or title cards when used sparingly, but the dense weight and breaks may reduce comfort for long-form reading at small sizes.
The segmented construction gives a mechanical, engineered tone, suggesting signage, machinery labeling, or futuristic interface typography. Its strong mass and forward slant feel active and forceful, balancing functional clarity with a distinctive, crafted disruption.
Likely designed to deliver a robust, contemporary sans voice while introducing a built-in stencil/segmentation system for instant differentiation. The goal appears to be high-impact communication with an industrial or tech-forward character, without resorting to decorative serifs or complex detailing.
The stencil breaks are applied with a consistent logic across the set, especially in C/G/O/Q and several lowercase rounds, which creates a recognizable rhythm and a cohesive ‘cut’ motif. Numerals and punctuation (as shown) match the same segmented idea, helping the style hold together in mixed alphanumeric settings.
