A heavy, slanted sans with geometric construction and crisp, angular terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, while deliberate breaks create stencil-like bridges across bowls and joints, producing a segmented rhythm through counters and curves. Proportions are fairly compact with tight apertures in places, and round forms lean toward squared geometry, helping the face read as engineered and punchy at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where the segmented stencil detailing can be a feature: posters, headers, branding marks, and packaging panels. It can also work for short UI labels or signage-style callouts when set with generous size and spacing to preserve clarity.
The overall tone feels industrial and tactical, with a contemporary, high-impact attitude. The cut-in gaps add a utilitarian, fabricated character that suggests signage, equipment labeling, and performance-driven branding rather than delicate editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, fast-moving voice with a manufactured stencil motif, balancing clean geometric letterforms with distinctive breaks that signal durability and modern utility.
The stencil interruptions are applied systematically across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, creating a strong pattern that becomes more prominent as text sizes increase. The slant adds motion and urgency, while the dense shapes and reduced interior space can make long passages feel busy when set small.
