This typeface is built from sharp, faceted strokes that replace curves with short angled segments, producing a chiseled, polygonal silhouette throughout. Stems and diagonals show noticeable slant and slight irregularity in angle changes, giving the letters a hand-cut rhythm rather than a strictly geometric one. Terminals are blunt and often kinked, counters tend toward squarish openings, and joins form crisp corners that emphasize the planar construction. Spacing and widths vary by glyph, adding an animated texture in words while keeping a consistent, bold outline presence.
Best suited to display applications where its faceted construction can be appreciated: posters, music and event graphics, game titles/UI elements, youth-oriented branding, and punchy headlines. It can work for short passages or taglines when a sharp, kinetic texture is desired, but it will read most confidently at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone feels energetic and a bit unruly—like lettering cut from tape or carved into a surface—while still reading clearly at display sizes. Its sharp facets and forward lean lend a tech-meets-street sensibility, suggesting speed, attitude, and a slightly mischievous voice rather than polished neutrality.
The design appears intended to translate italic, sans letterforms into an angular, planar vocabulary—prioritizing sharp edges and a handcrafted, cut-out feel while maintaining familiar proportions for readability. It aims to deliver a distinctive, energetic voice that signals modernity and attitude without relying on ornament or high contrast.
Round characters such as O/Q and the numerals resolve into multi-sided forms, and several lowercase shapes adopt simplified, angular constructions that enhance the “made of planes” idea. The slanted forms and broken-in angles create a lively line texture in longer text, with distinctive zig-zag inflections that stand out in headings.
