A condensed, blocky display face built from tall rectangular forms with strong vertical emphasis. Letters appear as dark slabs with lighter, carved-out counters and inset interior shapes, creating a cutout/inset look that reads like reversed ink within a solid frame. Edges are intentionally irregular and wavy, with rough corners and uneven stroke boundaries that produce a handmade, distressed rhythm. Spacing feels tight and compact, while widths vary per glyph, adding a slightly erratic, collage-like texture across words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings like posters, headlines, cover art, and branded graphics where texture is an asset. It also works well for event flyers, packaging, and label-style treatments that benefit from a cutout, handmade look, especially when set large with generous leading.
The font conveys a zine/poster attitude—bold, punchy, and a bit chaotic. Its uneven, cut-paper texture suggests DIY craft, punk/underground energy, and playful mischief rather than polished neutrality. The high-contrast figure/ground treatment makes it feel attention-grabbing and slightly edgy.
The design appears intended to mimic assembled, cut-and-pasted lettering—combining a rigid, condensed base with deliberately imperfect edges and inverted interior shapes to maximize contrast and visual bite. Its construction prioritizes striking figure/ground effects and a tactile, DIY surface over smooth typographic regularity.
The silhouette-driven construction keeps readability strong at headline sizes, but the inset counters and ragged edges create busy detail that can visually fill in at smaller sizes. Numerals and caps share the same tall, compressed stance, giving set text a consistent, banner-like color even when individual glyph widths shift.
