A heavy, hard-edged sans with squared geometry and a stencil construction throughout. Strokes are largely uniform in thickness with crisp terminals and simplified, blocky curves; counters are compact and often squared off. Distinct stencil bridges split key joins and bowls (notably in characters like O, C, G, S and several numerals), creating consistent vertical gaps and a cut-out rhythm. The lowercase follows the same robust, industrial drawing, with single-storey forms and a compact, workmanlike texture that reads best at larger sizes.
Best suited to bold display settings where the stencil breaks can read clearly: posters, headlines, wayfinding-style signage, packaging, and product or crate labeling. It also works well for logos and event branding that aims for an industrial or tactical aesthetic, especially in high-contrast, single-color applications.
The overall tone is industrial and utilitarian, evoking military marking, shipping labels, and equipment stenciling. Its heavy mass and deliberate cut-ins convey toughness and authority, with a pragmatic, engineered character rather than a decorative one.
The design appears intended to mimic practical stencil lettering while keeping a contemporary, geometric consistency. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, repeatable cut-outs, and fast recognition, making it effective for impactful, no-nonsense display typography.
Diagonal letters (A, K, M, N, V, W, X, Y, Z) keep sharp angles and broad joins, reinforcing a mechanical feel. Numerals adopt the same stencil logic, producing strong, sign-like silhouettes with unmistakable breaks that also help differentiate similar shapes such as 0/8/9.
