A bold, geometric sans with rounded corners and a heavy, even skeleton that’s interrupted by consistent horizontal breaks. Each glyph is constructed from stacked bars, creating a segmented, dash-built texture that reads like scanlines across the letterforms. Counters are fairly open for the weight, curves are smooth but quantized by the striping, and joins stay clean and blunt, giving the set a sturdy, display-first presence. The repeated gaps introduce a strong internal rhythm and a sense of motion, while overall proportions remain straightforward and legible at larger sizes.
Best suited for display applications where the scanline texture can be appreciated—posters, punchy headlines, branding marks, and entertainment or tech-themed graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or title cards when set large enough to keep the horizontal breaks clean and intentional.
The horizontal striping evokes CRT scanlines, shutter effects, and broadcast interference, producing a distinctly retro-tech and slightly “glitchy” mood. It feels mechanical and engineered, with an energetic pulse that suggests speed, signal, and infrastructure rather than warmth or calligraphy.
The design appears intended to merge a robust geometric sans foundation with a built-in scanline/dash texture, delivering instant atmosphere without additional effects. It prioritizes impact and thematic voice—retro display and signal aesthetics—while keeping letterforms conventional enough to remain readable in short bursts.
The striped construction becomes a primary visual feature: at smaller sizes the gaps may visually fill in or shimmer, while at larger sizes the banding reads crisply as a deliberate texture. The effect is especially prominent in broad strokes and rounded forms, where the segmented bars emphasize curvature through stepped continuity.
