This typeface uses a clean, geometric sans skeleton that is interrupted by horizontal dash-like segments, creating consistent banding across strokes. Curves and rounds remain smooth in their outer contours, but the interior rhythm of breaks gives each glyph a quantized, scanline texture. Stroke endings are mostly squared-off, counters are open and legible, and spacing feels generous, contributing to an airy, modern silhouette despite the internal fragmentation. Numerals and capitals read especially boldly, with the striped detailing maintaining a steady cadence across the set.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short-form typography where the striped interruption can be appreciated as a graphic texture. It works well for tech branding, event graphics, album/cover art, and UI or motion titles where a digital or broadcast-inspired voice is desired; for extended reading, the strong horizontal rhythm may be more effective in larger sizes and higher contrast settings.
The repeated horizontal breaks evoke scanlines, signal interference, and digital transmission artifacts, giving the font a distinctly electronic, glitch-adjacent tone. It feels technical and energetic rather than decorative, suggesting motion and a slight sense of disruption while staying readable at display sizes.
The design appears intended to merge a straightforward geometric sans foundation with a systematic dash/scanline treatment, producing a readable display face that communicates digital interference and modern, technical character without resorting to heavy distortion.
In longer text, the internal banding creates a strong horizontal emphasis that can produce a shimmering texture, especially on curved letters and bowls. The overall construction remains consistent from uppercase to lowercase, with the dash pattern acting as the primary stylistic signature.
