A geometric display face built from broad, squared forms that are repeatedly interrupted by precise cut-outs. Strokes are largely uniform with crisp, hard corners, but many glyphs include curved outer arcs that contrast with the otherwise rectilinear construction. The letterforms are segmented into layered slices, producing a consistent offset/echo effect and a hollowed rhythm through counters and breaks. Overall spacing feels open and extended, with wide capitals and robust shapes that remain legible despite the intentional discontinuities.
Best suited for large-scale settings where the cut-outs and layered slices can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title cards, branding marks, and on-screen graphics. It can also work for short labels in tech, gaming, or sci‑fi themed interfaces, while long passages or small sizes may lose clarity due to the deliberate internal breaks.
The repeated breaks and offset slicing give the font a techno-industrial tone, reading as engineered, mechanical, and slightly aggressive. It evokes retro-futuristic signage and sci‑fi interfaces, with a controlled, constructed feel rather than a handwritten or organic one.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive display voice by combining hollowed interruptions with an integrated offset-shadow construction. The goal is high visual impact and a sense of dimensional, engineered structure while keeping a consistent, geometric system across the alphabet and numerals.
The shadow-like offset is integrated as part of each glyph rather than a separate outline, creating a strong sense of motion and depth without relying on gradients. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, reinforcing consistency across alphanumerics.
