A heavy, monoline stencil with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners. Letterforms are built from broad, squared strokes with consistent thickness and clearly cut stencil gaps that read as purposeful bridges rather than distressed texture. Counters are compact and geometric, with an overall squarish footprint and a steady, modular rhythm; diagonals (like in K, V, W, X, Y, Z) appear as straight segments with crisp joins. Lowercase follows the same engineered logic, featuring single-storey forms and simplified terminals that keep texture dense and even in text.
Best suited to display applications where the stencil texture is meant to be seen: posters, product packaging, brand marks, labels, and environmental or wayfinding-style graphics. It can also work for short blocks of text or UI accents when a rugged, engineered tone is desired, though the dense rhythm and frequent bridges make it more impactful at larger sizes.
The tone is functional and industrial, evoking labeling, equipment markings, and engineered signage. Its rounded geometry softens the severity of the stencil breaks, producing a controlled, modern-utility feel that can read both retro-futuristic and tactical depending on context.
Designed to deliver a clean, repeatable stencil aesthetic with a contemporary rounded geometry, balancing hard industrial structure with approachable corners. The consistent bridges suggest an aim for reliable reproduction across print and marking contexts while maintaining a distinctive, thematic texture.
The stencil interruptions are relatively large and consistently placed, becoming a defining texture at both headline and paragraph sizes. Numbers and caps carry the strongest signage flavor, while the lowercase maintains the same systemized shapes for a unified, display-forward voice.
