A heavy, slab-serif display face with clear stencil interruptions running through many strokes, creating distinct bridges and internal gaps. Letterforms are wide and blocky with squared terminals, strong horizontals, and compact counters that emphasize mass. The rhythm is assertive and uniform, with simplified geometry and repeated cut patterns that read cleanly at large sizes. Numerals follow the same sturdy construction, keeping the same notched, segmented stroke logic for consistent texture.
Best suited for posters, headlines, and large-format signage where its stencil bridges remain crisp and intentional. It also works well for packaging, badges, and logotypes that benefit from an industrial or military-inflected voice, especially in short phrases and bold typographic layouts.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, military marking, and bold editorial headline styling. The stencil breaks add a sense of engineered functionality and grit, while the slab structure keeps it grounded and authoritative.
The design appears intended to merge classic slab-serif heft with practical stencil construction, producing a high-impact face that reads as marked, stamped, or cut from a template. Its wide proportions and consistent notching aim to deliver instant presence and a recognizable surface texture in display contexts.
In longer lines, the repeating stencil cuts create a distinctive striped texture across words, which can become the dominant visual feature. The heaviest joins and smaller interior spaces suggest it will perform best when given ample size and breathing room rather than in dense, small text settings.
