A heavy, geometric sans with a segmented stencil construction. Letterforms are built from broad, simplified strokes with frequent vertical and horizontal breaks, creating strong interior apertures and pronounced negative-space cuts. Curves are largely circular or semi-circular, while straight-sided glyphs favor squared terminals and compact joins, producing a modular rhythm and a dense, poster-ready silhouette. The overall spacing and proportions read stable and architectural, with consistent cut placement across rounds and counters.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging titles, and signage where the stencil segmentation can be appreciated. It can also work for badges, labels, and editorial display lines that benefit from a strong graphic voice rather than continuous text readability.
The segmented cuts and bold massing give the face an industrial, utilitarian attitude with a retro display flavor. It feels mechanical and punchy, like lettering intended for signage, labeling, or equipment, while remaining graphic and stylized rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to merge a bold geometric sans foundation with stencil-like breaks to create a distinctive, reproducible display style. Its construction prioritizes visual punch, modular consistency, and an industrial tone over text-oriented subtlety.
The stencil breaks are integral to recognition, especially in rounded letters and numerals, where the central splits create a distinctive stripe effect. At smaller sizes the internal cuts can become the dominant detail, so the design reads best when allowed enough scale for the negative spaces to stay open.
