A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared geometry, flat terminals, and crisp right-angle joins. Many glyphs feature small notches, inset cuts, and rectangular counters that create a quasi-stencil, machine-cut feel while keeping the overall silhouettes compact and vertical. The lowercase follows the same rigid, modular logic as the capitals, with minimal curve information and simplified bowls; spacing reads slightly tight and the rhythm is driven by chunky verticals and stepped diagonals.
Best suited to large sizes where the cut-in details and rectangular counters remain clear, such as headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, event graphics, and bold product packaging. It can also work for short signage and labels where an industrial, machined voice is desired, but its density makes it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The font projects a forceful, engineered tone—bold, utilitarian, and slightly aggressive. Its notched details and squared counters add a retro arcade/industrial flavor, suggesting signage, machinery, or action-oriented display typography.
The design appears intended as an attention-grabbing display sans built from modular, squared forms, emphasizing impact and a fabricated, mechanical character. The repeated notches and inset cuts suggest a deliberate ‘cutout’ motif meant to add texture and distinctiveness without introducing traditional serif detailing.
Diagonals (as seen in letters like A, K, V, W, X, Y) are rendered as stepped, angular forms rather than smooth strokes, reinforcing a pixel-adjacent, cut-from-plate aesthetic. Numerals share the same blocky construction and enclosed rectangular apertures, keeping the set visually consistent for headlines and labeling.
