A heavy, condensed sans with angular, faceted contours and a slightly irregular, hand-cut construction. Strokes are predominantly straight with abrupt corners and small notches, producing a chiseled silhouette rather than smooth curves. Counters tend to be compact and geometric, with many letters showing squared or polygonal bowls. Overall rhythm is energetic and uneven in a deliberate way, giving the text a cut-paper feel while remaining upright and strongly vertical.
Best suited for display use where impact matters: posters, headlines, short slogans, packaging, stickers, and bold branding moments. It works particularly well at larger sizes where the faceted details and notched corners can be appreciated, and where a deliberately rough, graphic texture is desirable.
The font projects a bold, rebellious tone with a playful edge—somewhere between comic signage and punk poster lettering. Its jagged geometry and compact proportions create a high-impact, attention-grabbing voice that feels informal and expressive rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut or carved lettering in a compact, high-contrast-of-shape (but not stroke) display style, prioritizing attitude and texture over neutrality. It aims to deliver a strong silhouette and a distinctive, jagged rhythm that reads as crafted and expressive.
In text, the tight internal spaces and sharp joins create dense word shapes, especially in uppercase. The numerals and lowercase follow the same angular logic, reinforcing a consistent, graphic texture across mixed-case settings.
