A constructed, geometric sans with consistent stroke weight and frequent intentional breaks that create clear stencil bridges. Curves are clean and near-circular, while joins and terminals are sharply cut, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. Many forms rely on straight vertical stems paired with partial bowls, giving counters an open, segmented feel. Overall proportions read orderly and modular, with simplified details and a strong emphasis on legibility through bold, high-contrast silhouettes against the white field.
Well-suited to display typography such as posters, headlines, logotypes, and packaging where the stencil breaks can become part of the visual identity. It also fits signage and wayfinding-style applications that benefit from a technical, fabricated look.
The segmented construction conveys an industrial, technical tone—suggesting labeling, machinery, or futuristic interfaces. Its precise cuts and restrained geometry feel modernist and utilitarian rather than playful or expressive.
The design appears intended to merge a modern geometric sans foundation with stencil logic, yielding letterforms that feel cut, fabricated, or marked for industrial use while remaining clean and contemporary.
The stencil gaps are used consistently across rounds and some diagonals, which adds a distinctive texture in text while maintaining recognizable letterforms. The design’s clean, minimal detailing helps it hold up in display sizes and short runs where the breaks become a defining graphic feature.
