A compact, heavy sans with large, rounded silhouettes and broad, blocky counters. The design uses distinctive interior notches and cut-in shapes—most noticeable in letters like E, S, and the numerals—creating an ink-trap-like, stencil-adjacent rhythm while remaining fully solid. Terminals are generally squared but softened by generous curvature, and many forms lean toward geometric, simplified construction (notably the circular O/0 and the wide, blunt bowls). The overall texture is dense and high-impact, with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short-form copy where maximum impact is desired. It also works well for logos, packaging, and signage that benefit from a bold, friendly presence and distinctive letter shapes.
The font reads as playful and assertive, with a retro display flavor that feels at home in bold headlines and attention-grabbing graphics. Its carved-in notches add a toy-like, industrial touch that gives the letterforms personality without becoming ornamental.
Likely designed as a characterful display sans that balances simple, rounded geometry with engineered-looking interior cuts to create a recognizable, branded voice at larger sizes.
At text sizes, the internal cutouts and tight apertures can visually fill in, so the face performs best where its notches remain clearly legible. The numerals share the same carved geometry, giving sets like 2, 3, 5, and 9 a distinctive, branded look.
