A rounded, geometric sans with a modular construction and conspicuous breaks cut into many strokes, giving a stencil-like, segmented feel. Curves are generally smooth and near-circular, while verticals and horizontals stay simple and monoline in appearance; terminals often read as softly squared rather than sharp. Several glyphs incorporate deliberate gaps or notches at consistent positions, creating a distinctive interrupted rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same system, with open counters and occasional stroke interruptions that make the set feel engineered yet intentionally offbeat.
Best suited to display applications where the segmented construction can be appreciated—posters, headlines, album/playlist art, packaging, and distinctive brand moments. It can also work for short blurbs or pull quotes when you want a playful texture, but the recurring breaks may become visually busy in dense, small-size reading.
The repeated cut-ins and broken strokes add a mischievous, experimental tone that feels more playful than formal. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the interruptions inject a quirky, slightly “glitched” personality with a retro display flavor.
Likely designed to reinterpret a clean geometric sans through intentional interruptions, turning familiar letterforms into a rhythmic, decorative system. The goal appears to be a one-of-a-kind voice that remains broadly legible while signaling novelty and character.
The segmented detailing becomes a stronger stylistic signal in longer text, where the repeated gaps form a visible pattern and texture. This gives words a decorative surface quality that can read as energetic and eye-catching, especially at larger sizes.
