A heavy, geometric sans with largely monoline strokes and squared terminals, built from broad verticals, simple diagonals, and round counters. Distinct stencil gaps appear consistently through bowls, stems, and crossbars, creating strong internal rhythm and a clearly segmented silhouette. The proportions skew expansive and poster-ready, with compact apertures and robust counters that maintain legibility while emphasizing impact.
Works best for display typography where the stencil character can be read clearly: posters, headlines, packaging, event graphics, and bold brand marks. It also suits wayfinding-inspired applications such as signage, labels, and industrial or military-themed art direction, where the segmented forms reinforce a functional, marked-on-surface aesthetic.
This typeface projects an industrial, utilitarian tone with a confident, no-nonsense presence. The repeated stencil breaks add a coded, tactical feel that reads as engineered and purposeful rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to mimic practical stenciled lettering used for marking, labeling, and identity systems, while remaining clean and highly graphic in contemporary layouts. Its consistent bridge placement and simplified construction suggest an emphasis on reproducible shapes, strong recognition at distance, and bold typographic voice.
Several glyphs use centered vertical breaks in round forms and strategic bridges in straight strokes, producing a consistent “cut-out” motif across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The figures are especially chunky and graphic, making them suitable for large-scale numbering and short, punchy text.
