A heavy, geometric display face built from monoline strokes and rounded bowls, consistently interrupted by crisp stencil breaks. Counters and apertures are often formed through triangular and vertical cut-ins, producing a sharp, modular rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Curves read as near-circular segments, while stems and terminals stay straight and blunt, giving the alphabet a constructed, sign-like regularity. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, with bold silhouettes and distinctive internal bridges that keep the shapes open and graphic at large sizes.
Best suited to large-scale typography where the stencil breaks remain clear—posters, editorial headlines, event graphics, signage, and bold brand marks. It can also work for packaging and labels that benefit from an industrial or architectural feel, while extended text is better kept to short bursts due to the strong internal segmentation.
The stencil interruptions and hard-edged cutouts create a technical, industrial tone with a distinctly modernist, poster-forward attitude. It feels engineered and authoritative—more about impact and structure than softness—while the repeated geometric notches add a slightly playful, coded texture.
Likely designed to translate classic geometric sans proportions into a stencil-ready, cutout aesthetic, preserving solid mass while introducing deliberate bridges for a fabricated or marked-on look. The repeated cut patterns suggest an intention to create a cohesive, logo-like texture across the full character set.
The design relies on consistent negative-space motifs (notched corners, split bowls, and bridged joins), which strengthens coherence in headlines but can become visually busy as sizes get smaller. The most recognizable character comes from the recurring triangular cutouts and vertical splits that give otherwise simple geometric forms a branded, emblematic look.
