A tall, monoline sans with a distinctly segmented, stencil-like construction. Strokes are straight and vertical-leaning with softened corners, and many glyphs are built from separated parts connected by small bridges, creating consistent internal gaps and breaks. Counters tend to be narrow and vertical, and terminals are blunt, reinforcing a fabricated, cut-out feel. Overall spacing reads compact in the sample text, with a clean, rhythmic texture driven by repeated vertical stems and deliberate interruptions in the outlines.
Best suited to headlines and short text where the stencil breaks become a graphic feature—posters, titles, branding lockups, packaging, and product labels. It also works well for signage-inspired layouts, wayfinding-style graphics, and interfaces or mockups that aim for an industrial or technical tone.
The broken strokes and modular geometry evoke industrial marking, equipment labeling, and engineered signage. Its crisp, no-nonsense shapes feel technical and functional, with a subtle retro-stencil character that can read both vintage and contemporary depending on setting.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean stencil aesthetic with a modern, streamlined sans skeleton. By combining tall proportions with consistent bridges and rounded corners, it aims to be both mechanically expressive and readable in display contexts.
The stencil logic is applied broadly across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing a cohesive system of bridges and gaps that remains legible at display sizes. Several forms favor simplified, linear construction over calligraphic modulation, emphasizing clarity and reproducibility.
