A heavy, compact sans with sharp, faceted construction that substitutes planar cuts for smooth curves. Strokes are thick and fairly uniform, with many corners appearing clipped or wedge-like, creating a choppy rhythm along bowls and terminals. The outlines show deliberate irregularities and slightly inconsistent geometry from glyph to glyph, giving the set a handmade, cutout feel while remaining largely monoline in color. Counters are tight and simplified, and the overall spacing reads dense, emphasizing impact over refinement.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, logo wordmarks, and merchandise graphics where a rugged, high-impact voice is desirable. It can also work for short promotional lines or event titles, particularly when paired with a quieter supporting text face.
The font conveys a bold, mischievous energy—part poster lettering, part DIY stencil/collage. Its broken-up curves and abrupt angles add a gritty, streetwise texture that feels informal and expressive rather than neutral or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a distinctive faceted texture, evoking cut-paper or carved-letter construction. It prioritizes attitude and recognizability—turning otherwise simple sans forms into a graphic, tactile headline style.
In text, the faceting becomes a consistent surface texture, especially noticeable in round letters and numerals where the edges step and notch instead of flowing. The strong black mass and tight apertures favor short bursts of copy and large sizes, where the roughened details read as intentional character rather than noise.
