A heavy, geometric stencil with broad, rectangular strokes and sharp chamfered corners that create an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette. Counters and joins are opened by consistent stencil breaks, producing clear bridges in bowls and at interior joints, while terminals stay flat and squared. The construction feels modular and engineered, with compact apertures, assertive diagonals, and strong, poster-style color that holds together in large text and headline settings.
Best suited to bold display applications where a strong, industrial voice is desired—posters, title cards, branding marks, packaging panels, and wayfinding-style signage. It works especially well when you want the stencil breaks to be a featured graphic element rather than a subtle detail.
The overall tone is tough and functional, evoking industrial labeling, equipment markings, and military or aviation stenciling. Its hard angles and deliberate gaps give it a tactical, no-nonsense presence with a distinctly mechanical edge.
The design appears intended to mimic practical stencil lettering and cut-material forms, prioritizing impact and a manufactured, utilitarian aesthetic. Its consistent bridges and faceted geometry suggest a focus on clear reproduction in bold, high-contrast layouts.
Round letters are rendered as faceted forms, and several glyphs use interior cutouts that read like punched or routed shapes. The lowercase keeps the same stencil logic as the caps, preserving a uniform, system-like texture across mixed-case text.
