A heavy, geometric sans with squared curves and a modular, cut-and-bridge construction that breaks bowls and horizontals into separated segments. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals tend to be flat, often sliced with diagonal cuts that create sharp, engineered corners. Counters are compact and the overall letterforms feel wide and stable, with rounded-rectangle curves on shapes like O/C/G balanced by straight-sided verticals and strong horizontal slabs. The stencil gaps are prominent and systematically placed, producing a rhythmic pattern of interruptions across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display use where the stencil breaks can be appreciated: posters, bold headlines, logo or wordmark work, product packaging, and industrial-style signage. It can also work for short UI labels or section headers when set large enough to preserve the internal separations and maintain quick recognition.
The segmented construction and wide, blocky proportions give the font a rugged, utilitarian voice with a techno-industrial edge. Its hard cuts and bridge logic evoke machinery, signage, and tactical marking systems, reading as assertive and no-nonsense rather than friendly or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust stencil aesthetic with a contemporary, engineered geometry—prioritizing impact, structure, and a distinctive segmented texture over neutral readability. The consistent bridge placement suggests an aim for cohesive branding and graphic applications that benefit from a strong, repeatable visual motif.
Several glyphs emphasize distinctive internal separations (notably on rounded letters and numerals), which increases visual character but can also introduce lookalike moments at smaller sizes where bridges and counters begin to merge. The texture becomes especially graphic in all-caps settings, where repeated gaps create a strong patterned cadence.
