A heavy, blocky sans with broad, rounded counters and an overall geometric skeleton. The defining feature is an irregular stencil-like disruption: most glyphs contain vertical or horizontal slits, notches, and small bite-shaped cutouts that break strokes in inconsistent, hand-cut ways. Terminals are largely blunt, curves are generous, and joins stay simple, letting the internal interruptions carry the character. Figures and punctuation echo the same cut-and-splice motif, giving the set a cohesive but intentionally imperfect rhythm.
Best used for short, bold text where the cutout details can be appreciated—posters, punchy headlines, logos/wordmarks, event flyers, and packaging accents. It can also work as a texture font for overlays or thematic title treatments where a rough stencil feel supports the concept.
The cutout breaks and chunky silhouettes create a mischievous, DIY tone—like spray-stencil lettering that’s been scuffed, overprinted, or roughly patched. It reads as energetic and slightly chaotic, with a playful roughness that feels suited to attention-grabbing, offbeat messaging rather than refinement.
The design appears intended to fuse a straightforward geometric, ultra-bold base with disruptive stencil cuts to create a one-off display voice. Its purpose is to add visual noise and personality—turning simple forms into a graphic texture that signals informality and experimentation.
Uppercase forms look especially strong and poster-like, while lowercase keeps the same construction with compact, sturdy shapes. The interruptions often cross counters (notably in O/Q and some numerals), creating distinctive internal negative-space accents that become part of the texture at larger sizes.
