A geometric display sans built from heavy, monolinear masses with sharp vertical terminals and rounded bowls. Many glyphs are interrupted by narrow vertical slits and occasional angled internal cuts, creating a stencil-like, inline effect that breaks the black shapes into segmented forms. Counters tend to be compact and simplified, with circular/ovoid structures in O, Q, and numerals, and squared-off joins elsewhere. Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally irregular at a micro level due to the cut-ins, giving the texture a striped, mechanical pattern across words.
Best suited to large-scale display settings such as posters, headline typography, branding marks, packaging callouts, and short signage phrases where the internal cut detailing can be appreciated. It works particularly well for high-contrast layouts that want a bold, patterned word-shape rather than neutral text color.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, with a strong Art Deco and industrial signage feel. The sliced interiors add tension and motion, producing a punchy, slightly aggressive texture that reads as retro-modern and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended as a decorative, geometric sans that riffs on Deco-era signage through segmented strokes and inline/stencil cuts, prioritizing visual character and pattern over continuous, text-first letterforms.
The internal slits and cuts become prominent at larger sizes, where they function as the defining graphic motif; at smaller sizes they risk filling in or creating visual noise. The cap forms dominate with a compact, monumental silhouette, while lowercase retains the same architectural logic and strong vertical emphasis.
