A heavy, all-caps-forward stencil face built from straight, monoline strokes with sharp chamfered corners and octagonal outer contours. Counters and joins are interrupted by consistent stencil bridges that create clean internal notches, while diagonals (notably in A, K, M, N, V, W, X, Y) keep a crisp, mechanical rhythm. The lowercase echoes the uppercase construction with compact forms and minimal curves, and the numerals follow the same cut, segmented geometry for a uniform set.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, and short callouts where the stencil breaks and angular silhouettes stay clearly legible. It fits industrial signage, packaging marks, and on-screen titles or UI labels that benefit from a rugged, mechanical voice.
The overall tone is assertive and functional, evoking industrial labeling and equipment markings. Its clipped corners and purposeful breaks read as tough, no-nonsense, and task-oriented rather than decorative or delicate.
The letterforms appear designed to mimic practical stencil construction while maintaining a tight, geometric look. The consistent bridges and chamfered terminals suggest an intention to balance functional marking aesthetics with strong, graphic presence in display settings.
The design relies on distinctive internal cut-ins and segmented bowls, which increases character at display sizes but can create busy interior detail in dense text. The silhouette is strongly geometric, with a consistent cadence of straight stems, angled terminals, and repeated bridge placement across the set.
