A heavy, angular sans with hand-cut irregularity and hard, faceted corners. Strokes are built from straight segments with frequent wedges, notches, and trapezoidal counters, producing a chiseled silhouette and a slightly unstable baseline rhythm. The forms stay largely monoline in feel, but with purposeful shape interruptions—cropped terminals, skewed horizontals, and uneven internal apertures—that create a cut-paper or carved look. Counters are often small and off-center, and spacing reads intentionally uneven, emphasizing a constructed, collage-like texture in words.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, flyers, headlines, title cards, album artwork, and game or entertainment branding. It can also work for logos and wordmarks where a gritty, angular voice is desired and the type is given enough size and breathing room.
The overall tone is rebellious and energetic, with a DIY, street-poster attitude. Its sharp geometry and intentional roughness suggest a futuristic-meets-handmade aesthetic—more aggressive and playful than neutral—suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, attention-forward sans with deliberately imperfect, cut-out geometry. By combining blocky construction with asymmetric notches and skewed counters, it aims for a distinctive display texture rather than smooth readability.
Distinctive silhouettes help at display sizes, where the interior cutouts and notches read as deliberate details rather than noise. In longer text, the irregular rhythm and condensed apertures can feel busy, especially in all-caps or dense lines.
