A heavy, geometric display face built from simplified, almost cut-paper shapes that alternate between hard triangles and broad circular segments. Counters are largely collapsed into solid forms, with letter recognition coming from strategic notches, wedges, and bites taken from the silhouette rather than open interior spaces. Strokes read as monoline and blocky, with frequent flat terminals and occasional sharp diagonals that create a strong zig-zag rhythm across words. The overall drawing feels deliberately modular, with consistent corner logic and repeated triangular incisions that unify uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logo marks, packaging, and entertainment or event graphics. The collapsed interiors and dense silhouettes favor larger sizes and simple layouts where the angular cutouts can read crisply and the rhythm of shapes can do the visual work.
The tone is bold and mischievous, mixing retro signage energy with a sci‑fi, puzzle-like sensibility. Its playful gaps and geometric "bites" give it a toy-like character, while the dense black massing keeps it assertive and poster-forward.
Likely designed to maximize graphic impact through solid massing and a consistent system of geometric cutouts, creating recognizable letterforms without relying on conventional counters. The aim appears to be a distinctive, brandable display voice that feels both retro and experimental.
Uppercase and lowercase share a closely related construction, making the font feel intentionally stylized rather than traditionally calligraphic. Numerals follow the same silhouette-first approach, staying highly graphic and compact. The distinctive use of triangles (notably in letters like A, V/W/X/Y and as internal cutouts elsewhere) becomes a signature motif that reads clearly at larger sizes.
