An angular, faceted sans with sharp planar strokes replacing curves, producing a chiseled silhouette across both cases. Stems and diagonals are built from straight segments with frequent corners, and terminals often end in blunt, wedge-like cuts. Stroke thickness stays fairly even, while proportions and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, uneven rhythm. Counters tend to be open and polygonal (notably in O/Q/0/8), with a compact, slightly bouncy baseline feel in running text.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, event promos, album or game titles, and branding that benefits from an aggressive, handcrafted voice. It works well in short bursts—headlines, logos, labels, and callouts—where its jagged facets can be appreciated without demanding extended reading.
The overall tone is bold and unruly, combining a handmade, streetwise energy with a playful cartoon edge. Its spiky geometry and irregular rhythm read as expressive and rebellious rather than refined, lending a gritty, DIY attitude to headlines and short statements.
The design appears intended to translate a hand-cut, shard-like drawing style into a consistent alphabet, prioritizing character and impact over geometric smoothness. By keeping strokes relatively even while letting widths and angles fluctuate, it aims for a controlled roughness that feels energetic and human.
Uppercase forms lean toward emblematic, sign-like constructions, while the lowercase keeps the same faceted logic and maintains clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals follow the same polygonal construction, with distinctive, angular bowls and sharp joins that emphasize the font’s cut-from-planes aesthetic.
