A heavy, geometric sans with clean, mostly monoline strokes and deliberate interruptions cut into key joins and counters. Many letters show small triangular or circular "bites" at the midline and at terminals, creating a segmented, almost stencil-like construction while keeping overall outlines crisp and contemporary. Bowls are generally round (C/O/Q) with tight apertures, and verticals stay straight and sturdy; diagonals (K/V/W/X) are sharp and assertive. Figures are similarly constructed, with rounded forms (6/8/9) featuring the same midline cut-ins for a consistent, engineered rhythm.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging where its notched construction can be appreciated. It can also work for short UI labels or signage that benefits from a technical, industrial voice, especially at larger sizes and with generous spacing.
The repeated notches and breaks give the face a fabricated, industrial tone—more like machined signage than a neutral corporate grotesk. It reads as modern and slightly aggressive, with a tech-forward, tactical character that feels suited to bold statements rather than quiet text.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a straightforward geometric sans through systematic cutouts, creating a recognizable signature without adding traditional ornament. The consistent interruptions suggest a concept-driven, engineered aesthetic aimed at high-impact, modern applications.
The distinctive midline cutouts become a strong identifying motif across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing high visual texture in longer lines. Because the interruptions occur within strokes and counters, the style remains legible at display sizes while becoming more decorative as size decreases.
