A heavy, block-built display face with subtly warped verticals and concave-sided strokes that create a carved, squeezed-in feel. Counters are small and angular, with squared apertures and sharp internal corners. The glyphs lean on rectangular construction but break rigidity through uneven stroke swelling, soft kinks, and slightly inconsistent widths, producing a lively, hand-cut rhythm. Terminals are blunt and squared, and curves are treated as faceted, giving the forms a chunky, sculpted silhouette.
Best suited for large-scale uses such as posters, headlines, logo wordmarks, and bold packaging where its chunky silhouettes and animated rhythm can be appreciated. It works particularly well for short phrases and titles, while dense small-size text may lose clarity due to tight counters and angular detailing.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, with a retro poster energy that feels handcrafted rather than engineered. Its irregularities and chiseled shapes suggest a playful, slightly rough personality suited to attention-grabbing display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a handcrafted, cut-letter aesthetic, balancing sturdy geometric construction with deliberate irregularity to keep lines energetic and distinctive.
The texture becomes more pronounced in text settings, where alternating narrow and wide shapes and the pinched midsections create a rolling, wavy color across lines. Numerals follow the same blocky logic with compact counters, keeping the set cohesive for short numeric bursts.
