A condensed, geometric sans with squared proportions and softened corners, built from thick outer contours and prominent interior cut-outs that create a hollowed, reversed look. Curves are tightened into rounded-rectangle shapes (notably in C, G, O, Q, and 0), while straight strokes terminate in blunt ends with occasional chamfer-like notches. Counters are large and rectangular, giving letters a segmented, template-like construction and a strong, modular rhythm. The lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s compact structure, with single-storey forms and a tall, space-efficient footprint.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, signage, logos, labels, and packaging where its cut-out structure can read clearly. It can also work for UI or game/tech display text when used at sizes large enough to preserve the interior openings.
The overall tone feels industrial and system-driven—like labeling on equipment, control panels, or packaged components. The inverted cut-out construction adds a slightly retro-digital flavor, suggesting utilitarian design with a bold, attention-grabbing edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence in a compact width while using hollow, reversed counters as the defining feature. Its consistent rounded-rect geometry and cut-out logic suggest a deliberate focus on industrial readability and distinctive, brandable display texture.
Spacing reads tight and the interior apertures do much of the legibility work, so the design maintains its character even at small headline sizes. Figures and capitals appear especially consistent in width and silhouette, reinforcing a uniform, blocky texture across lines.
