A heavy, geometric sans with monolinear strokes and broadly rounded curves. Many glyphs incorporate deliberate cutouts and notches—most noticeably through bowls and counters—creating a stencil-like, segmented construction while preserving clear overall silhouettes. Terminals are predominantly flat and squared, with occasional angled joins in diagonals and a compact, built-up rhythm that reads solid at display sizes. Uppercase forms are wide and stable with clean, simple geometry, while lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey feel in several letters and maintains consistent stroke weight across stems, bowls, and diagonals.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, logotypes, and bold branding systems where the cutout details can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging, product labels, and themed graphics that benefit from a technical or industrial voice; for extended reading at small sizes, the segmentation may become visually dense.
The segmented cutouts and sturdy geometry give the face an industrial, techno tone, evoking labeling systems, machinery, and sci‑fi interface graphics. It feels assertive and engineered rather than friendly, with a purposeful “designed object” character that adds visual intrigue and a slightly covert, coded flavor in longer text.
The design appears intended to fuse a clean geometric sans foundation with a consistent stencil/cutout gimmick, producing a distinctive display face that remains legible while signaling a technical, engineered aesthetic. The repeated internal breaks suggest an emphasis on recognizability and graphic texture over neutrality.
The recurring internal breaks act as a strong identifying motif across letters and numerals, making the typeface highly recognizable but also more visually busy than a conventional sans. Round characters like O/Q and numerals show the motif most strongly, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) emphasize sharp, angular energy against the otherwise rounded construction.
