A sharply angular, oblique display face with a chiseled, quasi-stencil construction. Strokes are largely monolinear but break into crisp facets and notched terminals, producing a cut-paper or carved-plastic feel. Counters tend toward squarish shapes, curves are minimized, and many joins resolve into abrupt corners rather than smooth transitions. Overall proportions feel expanded, with some glyph-to-glyph width irregularity that adds a lively, uneven rhythm in text.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its angular quirks can be read as a deliberate stylistic statement—posters, headlines, logos, product packaging, game or event graphics, and album/merch art. It can work for punchy subheads or callouts, but will feel visually intense in long passages or small sizes.
The letterforms read as intentionally odd and energetic, balancing a retro sci‑fi edge with a mischievous, handmade wobble. Its sharp corners and notches create a slightly mechanical, “gadget” tone, while the inconsistent widths and quirky details keep it informal and playful.
Likely designed to deliver a one-off, characterful voice through faceted geometry and deliberate irregularity, evoking a retro-futuristic or experimental sign/label aesthetic. The consistent chiseled motifs across letters and numerals suggest a focus on distinctive display impact and memorable texture rather than quiet readability.
Uppercase forms are especially geometric and boxy, while lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic shapes and unexpected internal cuts. Numerals follow the same faceted logic, with squared bowls and angular diagonals that keep the set visually cohesive. In running text the strong slant and frequent notches create a busy texture, emphasizing personality over neutrality.
