A bold, sans-serif design built from tightly spaced horizontal bars, creating a segmented, scanline texture through each letterform. The silhouettes stay clean and contemporary—rounds are smoothly curved and stems are straight—while the repeated breaks introduce a deliberate discontinuity across strokes. Spacing is fairly open and the internal counters remain readable, but the horizontal striping adds visual noise and can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. The overall construction feels consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with a sturdy baseline and even rhythm.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, title cards, and bold branding moments where the scanline texture can carry the visual concept. It also works well for tech-themed graphics, UI mockups, event promos, and packaging accents when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing.
The scanline striping evokes screens, signal interference, and machine-read output, giving the face a distinctly digital and slightly disruptive personality. It reads as retro-tech and cyber-leaning rather than decorative script-like, with an assertive, engineered tone. The effect can also suggest motion or transmission, like text viewed through a shutter or display refresh.
The design appears intended to fuse a modern grotesque-like skeleton with a distinctive scanline/dash construction, delivering an immediately recognizable digital texture while preserving straightforward letter silhouettes. It prioritizes graphic impact and atmosphere over neutral text setting.
Because the texture is integral to the strokes, the typeface benefits from generous point sizes and strong contrast against the background. The patterning becomes a key graphic element in larger settings, where the striped fill is clearly visible without overwhelming the letter shapes.
