A very heavy slab-serif display face with compact counters and a carved inline that tracks through the main strokes. Letterforms lean on chunky, blocky construction with brisk curves and occasional sharp notches, giving the silhouettes a cut-paper feel. Serifs are short and squared, and terminals often end in flattened angles rather than soft rounds. The inline detailing creates a two-layer look across most glyphs, producing strong internal rhythm and high visual density in both capitals and lowercase.
Best used at display sizes where the inline carving can be clearly resolved—posters, event titles, packaging fronts, signage, and bold brand marks. It works especially well for short phrases and names where its layered interior detail can function as the primary visual hook.
The font projects a showcard sensibility—bold, attention-seeking, and slightly mischievous. Its inline carving and chunky slabs evoke vintage signage and headline typography, with a lively, theatrical tone suited to energetic messaging.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a vintage showcard flavor, combining slab-serif sturdiness with an inline cut that adds depth without relying on external effects. The goal appears to be a distinctive, decorative headline voice that remains readable while feeling crafted and energetic.
The internal striping is not purely centered everywhere; it shifts to follow stroke direction and corners, which adds movement and a hand-cut character. Round letters (like O, Q, and 0) feel tightly enclosed due to thick strokes, while diagonals and junctions show distinctive chiseled breaks that emphasize the decorative construction.
