A heavy, angular sans with deliberately irregular geometry and a cut-paper feel. Strokes are thick and fairly consistent, with sharp corners, occasional bevels, and subtly uneven edges that make each glyph feel individually shaped rather than mechanically drawn. Counters are boxy and compact, terminals often end in blunt wedges, and spacing looks slightly springy, creating a lively, restless rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging fronts, and entertainment or music-related graphics where character matters more than neutrality. It can work in brief callouts or captions at larger sizes, but the irregular shapes and dense counters make it less ideal for extended reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is mischievous and energetic, with a DIY, punk-zine edge. Its irregular contours and skewed silhouettes suggest motion and attitude, trading polish for personality and a slightly chaotic charm.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a raw, handmade look—combining bold, blocky construction with intentionally imperfect angles to create a distinctive display voice.
Capital forms read particularly strong and poster-like, while lowercase retains the same chiseled, geometric construction for a cohesive texture. Numerals are bold and blocky, matching the alphabet’s squared counters and angled joins, which helps keep mixed text visually consistent.
