Stencil Gyha 11 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Cord Nuvo' by Designova, 'MC Magtons' by Maulana Creative, 'Kuunari' and 'Kuunari Rounded' by Melvastype, 'Haettenschweiler' by Microsoft Corporation, 'Grand' by North Type, 'Sharpix' by Umka Type, and 'Hoverion' by Variatype (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, all-caps–friendly stencil design with heavy monoline strokes and sharply chamfered corners. The letterforms are constructed from straight segments and octagonal curves, with consistent stencil breaks (bridges) appearing through counters and along key joins. Proportions are tall and compact, with tight apertures and a strong vertical rhythm; round letters like O and Q read as faceted, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are steep and sturdy. Lowercase echoes the uppercase structure, keeping the same squared geometry and deliberate interruptions for a cohesive texture in text.
Best suited for display applications where impact and texture matter: posters, headlines, wayfinding, product packaging, and brand marks that want an industrial or tactical edge. It can also work for short labels and callouts where the stencil breaks contribute to the design rather than hinder readability.
The overall tone feels rugged and functional, evoking stenciled marking systems, shipping crates, and equipment labeling. Its sharp, engineered forms and deliberate breaks give it a disciplined, no-nonsense presence suited to bold messaging.
The design appears intended to translate traditional stencil marking into a crisp, typographic system—prioritizing durability, consistency, and high-impact shapes while preserving the characteristic bridges that signal “stenciled” construction.
The stencil gaps are substantial enough to remain visible at display sizes, creating a distinctive striped pattern in rounded letters and a pronounced, segmented look in bowls and counters. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, with strong vertical emphasis and clear, sign-like silhouettes.
