A geometric display face built from very slender strokes that are repeatedly interrupted by deliberate cutouts and small notches, giving each glyph a segmented, stencil-like construction. Many letters combine straight verticals and horizontals with smooth, open curves, and several shapes include an offset secondary slice that reads as a subtle shadow/echo rather than a filled outline. Terminals are crisp and squared, counters are often partially open, and the overall rhythm emphasizes negative space as much as stroke. The numerals follow the same cut-and-shift logic, producing a consistent, engineered look across the set.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, branding marks, album art, and packaging where the cutout construction can be appreciated. It also fits tech or sci‑fi themed interface mockups and signage-style labeling, especially at larger sizes.
The font conveys a futuristic, slightly dystopian tone—like labeling on equipment, interfaces, or sci‑fi signage. Its broken strokes and offset accents add a glitchy, high-tech energy that feels intentional and designed, not distressed.
The design appears intended to merge a clean geometric skeleton with purposeful voids and an offset shadow accent, creating a lightweight display voice that feels technical and forward-looking. The consistent segmentation suggests a controlled, modular approach aimed at visual character over continuous-text readability.
In the sample text, the repeated gaps and shadow-like offsets create a lively texture that becomes more pronounced in longer lines. Because the forms rely on separation and fine strokes, clarity depends on sufficient size, contrast, and spacing.
