A heavy, angular display face built from sharp planar facets instead of curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals end in crisp diagonal cuts that create a chiseled, polygonal silhouette. Counters tend toward squarish/octagonal forms, producing a compact, cut-paper rhythm, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph for a lively, uneven texture. Lowercase forms echo the same faceted construction, with single-storey shapes and simplified geometry that keeps the set cohesive at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, title cards, and logo-style wordmarks where the faceted silhouettes can be appreciated. It also works well for game/arcade graphics, apparel, packaging, and bold labels where a rugged, angular voice is desirable. Use generous tracking and moderate line lengths for improved clarity in multi-line settings.
The overall tone is loud and kinetic, with a rough-cut, hand-built energy that reads as industrial and slightly rebellious. Its jagged geometry lends a retro arcade/comic edge, balancing toughness with a playful, stylized attitude.
This design appears intended to replace traditional curves with crisp, beveled planes to create a strong, cut-from-solid look. The variable widths and slightly irregular rhythm suggest a deliberate effort to feel handmade and energetic while remaining legible in display contexts.
The many diagonal cuts and small interior angles create distinctive silhouettes that pop in short words, but can make long passages feel busy. Numerals follow the same blocky, polygonal logic, helping headings and badges look consistent across letters and figures.
