A modular display face built from repeated horizontal dash segments with rounded ends, creating a quantized, segmented silhouette. Strokes are monoline and constructed on a consistent grid, with open counters and frequent gaps that act like internal cut-ins. The shapes feel squarish and wide-set overall, with generous sidebearings and a steady rhythm of stacked bars forming verticals, curves, and diagonals. In text, the segmented construction stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving a uniform texture with strong horizontal striping.
Best suited for headlines, posters, labels, and identity work where the segmented texture can be a primary graphic element. It also works well for tech-themed UI display text, dashboards, and motion graphics, especially at medium to large sizes where the dash structure remains clearly legible.
The font reads as tech-forward and retro at the same time, reminiscent of early digital signage and instrument displays. Its dotted-bar construction gives it an industrial, coded feel, while the rounded terminals soften the tone into something more playful than severe.
The design appears intended to translate a digital, quantized construction into a bold display alphabet, using repeated rounded bars to create a consistent visual system. The goal seems to be strong thematic character—evoking electronic readouts—while keeping letterforms recognizable across cases and numerals.
Because many strokes are interrupted into short bars, small sizes can reduce letter differentiation, while larger settings emphasize the distinctive striped pattern. The numerals and punctuation inherit the same segmented logic, helping the type maintain a cohesive, display-oriented voice.
