A heavy, geometric sans built from squared-off strokes and rounded outer corners, with a distinctly modular construction. Many letters incorporate deliberate interior breaks and notch-like cutouts that echo stencil logic, creating strong negative shapes and a rugged rhythm. Counters are generally tight, terminals are blunt, and several joins are simplified into straight segments, producing a compact, engineered texture in text. Uppercase forms are boxy and assertive, while lowercase keeps similar proportions and the same cut-and-slot motif for visual continuity.
Best suited to display applications where its cutout geometry can read clearly: headlines, posters, logos, packaging, labels, and environmental or wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short UI or gaming/tech titles when a rugged, engineered look is desired, but the internal gaps make it less ideal for long-form body copy.
The overall tone is industrial and utilitarian, suggesting labeling, machinery, or tactical graphics. The stencil-like gaps and blocky silhouettes lend a hardened, functional voice that reads as modern and slightly aggressive rather than friendly or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, functional sans with stencil-derived interruptions and a modular, constructed feel. Its consistent notches and simplified geometry prioritize impact and a technical, industrial character over typographic neutrality.
Distinctive carved details appear consistently across the alphabet and numerals, helping separation at display sizes but adding busy interior shapes as text gets smaller. The numerals follow the same squared system and feel signage-oriented, with strong, easily distinguished silhouettes.
