A condensed, heavy display sans with sharply angular construction and chiseled corners. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal internal modulation, and many terminals are clipped into wedges or hard diagonals rather than clean horizontals. Counters are small and often squarish, with occasional notch-like cut-ins that create a slightly stenciled, cut-paper feel. Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, producing an uneven rhythm that reads intentional and expressive rather than strictly mechanical.
Best suited to display settings where impact and personality matter most—posters, headlines, cover art, event graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It performs well in short phrases and titling, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the carved details and irregular widths read as character rather than noise.
The overall tone is loud and assertive, with a scrappy, DIY energy. Its jagged geometry and irregular rhythm evoke retro poster lettering, comic titling, and gritty industrial signage, projecting urgency and attitude over refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful, compact headline voice with a handcrafted, angular edge. By combining dense vertical proportions with faceted cuts and uneven rhythm, it aims to feel energetic and gritty while remaining legible in bold display use.
In running text the tall, compressed proportions create strong vertical emphasis, while the angular cuts help differentiate shapes at larger sizes. The numerals match the same faceted, blocky logic, keeping the set cohesive for headlines and short bursts of copy.
