A condensed, all-caps-forward display sans with sharply angular, wedge-like terminals and subtly uneven stroke edges. Forms are built from narrow verticals and faceted diagonals, giving counters and joins a cut-paper or chiseled look rather than smooth geometry. The rhythm is intentionally irregular: widths vary noticeably by glyph, curves are minimized into kinked segments, and many characters lean on asymmetrical cuts at the top and bottom. Lowercase echoes the same narrow, fractured construction, with small bowls and compact apertures that keep the texture dense and graphic.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event graphics, and branding marks where the angular texture can be appreciated. It also works well for themed applications—like retro-styled packaging, album/film titles, or playful signage—where a deliberately rough, hand-cut feel is desirable.
The overall tone feels mischievous and slightly menacing—like a stylized poster headline that blends comic energy with a punk or horror-tinged edge. Its jagged silhouettes and quirky inconsistencies read as handmade and expressive rather than neutral or corporate.
This design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing display voice using exaggerated narrow proportions and chiseled, irregular cuts. The goal is distinctiveness and attitude over neutrality, producing memorable word shapes for titling and graphic use.
At text sizes the spiky terminals and tight apertures can make longer passages feel busy, while at larger sizes the distinctive silhouettes become a key feature. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, with strong vertical emphasis and abrupt corner cuts that help them match headline settings.
