A geometric sans built from bold, modular shapes that are repeatedly interrupted by horizontal cut bands. Many letters read as stacked slabs with consistent midline gaps, creating a sliced, stencil-like construction across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Curves are simplified into broad arcs, corners are clean and squared, and strokes tend toward uniform thickness, with the segmentation doing most of the visual work. The overall rhythm is deliberately discontinuous, emphasizing negative space and creating a strong stripe pattern through text.
Best suited to short, bold settings where the segmented construction becomes a feature—headlines, posters, event graphics, and identity work. It can also work for album art, packaging, or motion graphics where the striped breaks can be echoed by layout lines or animation. For long passages, larger sizes and generous tracking help preserve clarity.
The repeated horizontal breaks give the type a digital, glitch-adjacent attitude with a distinctly engineered, industrial feel. It balances technical cool with a mischievous, experimental tone—recognizable letterforms that look intentionally interrupted and reassembled.
The design appears intended to transform a familiar geometric sans into a striking display voice by introducing systematic horizontal interruptions. The consistent banding suggests a concept-driven approach—merging stencil logic and digital distortion to produce an attention-grabbing, graphic texture in text.
In continuous reading, the midline cuts align into prominent bands that can either unify a headline or interfere with small-size legibility, depending on contrast and spacing. Round characters (like O/C/G) maintain strong silhouettes despite the slicing, while complex shapes (like M/W/K) become more graphic and logo-like.
