A heavy slab-serif design with broad proportions and compact internal counters. Strokes feel cut or stamped rather than drawn: terminals and joins show faceted, slightly irregular angles, producing a subtly rough edge. Serifs are blocky and assertive, and the overall rhythm alternates between wide, open forms and tighter, compressed ones, giving the text line a lively, uneven texture. The figures echo the same chunky construction, with straightened curves and squared-off turns.
Best suited to display applications where its chunky slabs and angular texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, packaging, signage, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text (pull quotes, labels, titles), but the strong shape language and lively rhythm are likely to dominate in long reading.
The font conveys a rugged, handmade confidence—somewhere between old poster wood type and a playful, cartoonish stamp. Its chiseled corners and bouncy spacing add character and informality, making it feel energetic and a bit rebellious while still remaining sturdy and readable at display sizes.
The design appears intended to mimic the presence of vintage slab-serif display type while adding a hand-hewn, faceted finish for extra personality and punch. The goal seems to be high-impact legibility with a distinctive, crafted surface that stands out in branding and editorial titling.
In text, the face creates a strong color and a distinctive jagged sparkle along shoulders, bowls, and diagonals. The faceting is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, helping the style read as intentional rather than distressed, while the pronounced slabs keep word shapes anchored and bold.
