A geometric sans with consistent stroke weight and soft, rounded terminals. Letters are constructed from sturdy, simplified shapes with prominent stencil breaks that create clear interior bridges in rounds and counters. The overall rhythm is compact and steady, with generous apertures and clean, straight-sided curves that keep the forms legible despite the interruptions. Diagonals and joins are crisp, and the numerals follow the same broken-stroke logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to display applications where the stencil detailing can contribute character: posters, product packaging, wayfinding, labels, and brand marks that want an industrial or tactical flavor. It can work for short text blocks when set with comfortable tracking and line spacing to keep the repeated breaks from visually clustering.
The stencil cuts and engineered shapes give the face a practical, industrial tone—suggesting labeling, equipment marking, and no-nonsense signage. Its rounded corners soften the severity, landing the feel between rugged utility and contemporary graphic design.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust stencil voice with modern geometric construction—optimized for strong reproduction, clear letter identification, and a distinctive cut-stroke texture that reads as functional and engineered.
The stencil gaps are large and systematically placed, becoming a defining texture at text sizes and a bold pattern at display sizes. The design reads cleanly in all-caps, while lowercase maintains the same mechanical construction without calligraphic modulation.
