A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with squarish counters and corners softened into superellipse-like curves. Many glyphs feature deliberate internal notches and split cuts that create a stencil/cutout effect, producing broken bowls and segmented strokes while keeping an overall compact, blocky silhouette. The rhythm is broad and steady, with blunt terminals, minimal stroke modulation, and consistently rounded geometry across curves and straights. Lowercase forms are simple and tall, with single-storey shapes where applicable and sturdy dots and punctuation that match the font’s mass.
Best suited to display settings where the chunky shapes and cutout details can stay crisp—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and short UI titles. It can also work for labels and signage in controlled environments where the stencil motif reinforces an industrial or tech-forward theme.
The cutout construction and rounded blocks give it an industrial, utilitarian tone with a contemporary tech edge. At the same time, the exaggerated heft and soft corners add a friendly, toy-like warmth that reads bold and attention-seeking rather than formal.
The design appears intended to fuse rounded, modular sans letterforms with a purposeful stencil break, creating a bold, highly graphic voice that remains playful through softened geometry. The consistent cut positions and rounded-rectangle construction suggest an emphasis on recognizability, texture, and strong silhouette over neutral text reading.
The stencil splits are prominent enough to become a defining texture in text, especially in letters with enclosed counters (e.g., B, D, O, P, R) and in diagonals where the cut creates a dynamic seam. In longer lines, the repeating gaps introduce a patterned cadence that can either add character or reduce clarity at smaller sizes, making spacing and size choices important.
