A modular, rectilinear display face built from squared outlines with a consistent heavy perimeter and frequent internal perforations. Strokes are constructed on a grid, producing stepped corners, flat terminals, and an overall boxy geometry. Many glyphs include repeated square knockouts along the strokes, creating a dotted/vented rhythm that reads like a stencil or perforated tile. Counters tend to be rectangular, proportions run generous in width, and spacing feels open enough to keep the outlined forms legible despite the internal cutouts.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and logo/wordmark work where the perforated outline texture can read clearly. It also fits game interfaces, techno-themed graphics, and event branding that benefits from a retro-digital or industrial label aesthetic. For longer passages, it works most comfortably in short bursts or larger point sizes to avoid visual noise.
The perforated outlines suggest a techy, industrial sensibility with a distinctly pixel/arcade flavor. Its patterned cutouts add a playful, constructed look—somewhere between hardware UI, sci‑fi labeling, and DIY modular signage. The texture is attention-grabbing and decorative rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to merge pixel-grid construction with a hollow, perforated stroke treatment, turning each letter into a textured, modular object. The goal is likely high visual character and a strong “built/engineered” presence rather than conventional text economy.
The internal knockout pattern is highly characteristic and creates a strong texture line-to-line in text settings. Diagonals and curves are implied through stepwise grid moves, reinforcing the digital, schematic feel. Because the stroke interiors are busy, the font’s impact increases at larger sizes where the perforations can be appreciated as a deliberate surface detail.
