A modular, geometric display design built from rectilinear strokes with squared corners and consistent, even weight. Each letterform is punctured with regularly spaced circular knockouts, creating a perforated, hollowed texture that runs through verticals, horizontals, and counters. Curves are largely interpreted as stepped or squared shapes, giving the set a pixel-like rhythm and a decidedly constructed feel. Spacing and alignment are very regular, reinforcing a grid-based, engineered appearance in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and short callouts where the perforated detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging, labels, and themed graphics that benefit from an industrial or retro-technical texture, rather than for small UI text or extended reading.
The repeated round perforations evoke punched metal, film sprockets, or circuit-board detailing, yielding an industrial tech tone with a retro arcade edge. Despite the mechanical construction, the dotted voids add a decorative, playful sparkle that keeps the texture lively at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to merge a monospaced, grid-driven construction with a distinctive hollowed perforation motif, prioritizing texture and thematic character over minimalism. Its consistent geometry and repeated knockouts suggest a deliberate nod to manufactured materials and digital-era styling.
Because the internal knockouts are a dominant feature, the face reads most clearly when given enough size or resolution for the perforation pattern to remain distinct. The silhouette is sturdy and blocky, while the interior pattern adds visual noise that can quickly become dense in long passages.
