A heavy, high-contrast sans with simplified, geometric letterforms and frequent cut-in shapes that read like stenciled or incised apertures. Curves are broadly rounded but often interrupted by sharp triangular notches or slanted “bites,” creating a distinctive internal rhythm across bowls and counters. Terminals tend toward blunt, squared endings, while diagonals (notably in V/W/X and the numerals) are crisp and wedge-like. The overall color is dense and poster-ready, with strong black masses balanced by strategically placed openings that add texture and prevent clogging at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, title treatments, posters, and brand marks where the bold silhouettes and cut-in details can carry the composition. It can also work well on packaging and labels, or for event and entertainment graphics that benefit from a quirky, high-impact voice.
The font projects a bold, mischievous personality—part mid-century display, part futuristic signage. Its cutout details and chunky silhouettes feel energetic and slightly irreverent, lending a lively, attention-grabbing tone that reads more expressive than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through heavy strokes and distinctive incisions, producing a memorable, stylized sans for display typography. The systematic cutout language suggests a focus on creating a recognizable motif that holds together across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The repeated diagonal cut motifs (especially in O/Ø-like forms and several round letters) create a strong brandable signature, but also make the texture more decorative than purely utilitarian. Spacing appears geared toward headlines and short phrases, where the internal cutouts can be appreciated without competing for attention in dense text.
