A heavy, block-built display face with compact counters that often collapse into solid forms, creating a poster-like silhouette. Letterforms are constructed from squared, geometric masses softened by rounded corners, with frequent notches, wedges, and slice-like cut-ins that feel intentionally irregular. Strokes are largely uniform, emphasizing strong verticals and broad shoulders, while spacing and internal structure vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a rugged, modular rhythm. The lowercase is tall and sturdy, and figures are similarly chunky with simplified interior detail for maximum impact.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, title cards, logos, and bold packaging where the solid interiors and cut-in details read as texture. It can also work for event branding or album art where an assertive, stamped look is desirable, but is less appropriate for long passages or small UI text.
The overall tone is loud and tactile—part industrial and mechanical, yet playful due to the quirky cuts and uneven details. It evokes stamped or cut-out lettering, suggesting DIY signage, arcade-era display type, or rugged branding with a rebellious edge.
The design appears intended to maximize visual weight and attitude while adding character through irregular cut-ins and collapsed counters. It prioritizes bold silhouette and graphic texture over conventional openness, aiming for a distinctive, industrial display voice.
Because many counters are minimized or closed, readability drops at smaller sizes and in dense settings; the design performs best when given room to breathe. The distinctive nicks and internal wedges become a key texture in headlines and can create a dynamic, distressed pattern across a line of text.
