My friend is a contemporary artist and I am working on his identity. I am looking for a well designed and modern looking stencil font doesn't look contrived like many stencil fonts do. I've been looking, but I haven't come across the right one yet, do you guys have any suggestions?
@JWeltin, both are beautiful fonts and good suggestions, I love Balega, I'll have to keep that font in mind, but their styles are not quite matches for this project. I'll have to keep digging.
One possibility: Dez Yinznat Stencil.
Also, ZionTrain Pro includes some stencil fonts.
There's a lot of great stencil typefaces out there, so you need to be more descriptive.
You say "modern," but that has so many senses to it.
Eames Century Modern has a stencil, but that might not be the modern you mean:

Contrived is also a bit vague. A stencil font is a contrivance. However, Dala Floda seems to avoid contrivance by making the thins so thin they disappear:

And then there's all these stencils, which are very nice too:

(Search Couteau and Bery Script)
Tmac you're right, I was a bit vague. That was a little on purpose though, I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted and I was curious what the community would suggest. I think I found what I was looking for though. The remo stencil from Ourtype. Thanks for opening the door on that one
Dala Floda is amazing.

Another great one
Not sure about the lowercase and the round caps …
