Stencil Typeface SETT
A stencil typeface built from a single rule: every glyph consists exclusively of vertical strokes. The width of every stroke, counter, and space between letters is identical, creating a continuous rhythm of black and white. Horizontal strokes, diagonals, and connecting elements are omitted entirely.
