A chunky, slanted sans with sharply faceted construction and brisk, brush-like stroke endings. Forms are built from planar segments rather than smooth curves, creating crisp corners and chiseled counters even in rounded letters like O and Q. The rhythm is lively and irregular, with slightly inconsistent widths and proportions across glyphs, while maintaining a cohesive, graphic silhouette. Terminals tend to be wedge-cut or notched, and bowls and diagonals show deliberate kinks that emphasize the jagged, cut-paper geometry.
Best suited to display roles such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, event graphics, and entertainment branding where a raw, angular voice is desirable. It can work well for album art, game titles, stickers, and merch graphics, especially when paired with simpler text faces for longer reading.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, combining a comic immediacy with a rough, street-poster attitude. Its angular jitter and energetic slant read as rebellious and handmade, suggesting motion and impact rather than refinement. The faceted shapes lend a gritty, stylized edge that feels at home in loud, attention-grabbing settings.
The design intention appears to be delivering a high-impact, handmade display sans with a distinctly faceted, cut-stroke look. It prioritizes character and texture over neutrality, using angular segmentation and notched terminals to create a memorable, energetic word shape.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same fractured logic, producing a consistent texture in mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same carved, angular treatment, keeping the set visually unified. The lively outlines and sharp joins make it most effective when given enough size and spacing to let the facets remain legible.
