A condensed, monolinear sans with tall proportions and compact spacing. Each glyph is drawn as a simplified silhouette with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation, then visually “punched” with inset cutouts that create a hollowed, reversed look within the letterforms. Curves are tight and somewhat squared-off, terminals are blunt, and counters tend to be small, giving the set a dense, engineered rhythm in text. The effect reads like an inverted cut-letter or routed sign style where interior voids and notches define much of the character.
Best suited to display roles where its condensed width and inset cutout styling can be appreciated—posters, headlines, packaging panels, labels, and wayfinding/signage. It can work for short bursts of text, but the dense counters and interior cutouts are most effective at larger sizes or with generous tracking.
The overall tone is industrial and utilitarian, with a slightly retro, label-maker or stencil-board flavor. The carved/inset detailing adds a technical, machine-made feel that can read assertive and attention-grabbing, especially in short phrases.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, space-efficient display voice with a distinctive inverted cutout construction reminiscent of stenciling, engraving, or industrial marking. The consistent geometry and tight proportions prioritize impact and a strong graphic presence over softness or handwriting cues.
Capitals and numerals feel particularly rigid and sign-like, while lowercase maintains the same condensed skeleton and inset treatment, keeping a consistent texture across mixed-case settings. The boxed presentation in the specimens emphasizes its strong figure/ground play and the font’s reliance on internal cutouts for recognition.
