A condensed, high-impact display face built from solid rectangular tiles with the letterforms knocked out as white counters. Strokes are simplified and slightly irregular, with gentle waviness and hand-cut edges that give each glyph a handmade feel while keeping a consistent vertical, upright stance. Proportions are tall and compact, with tight internal spacing and strong figure/ground contrast that reads like cut paper or stencil work. Numerals follow the same tile-based construction, maintaining a cohesive rhythm across the set.
Best suited for short, punchy display settings such as posters, headlines, event promos, packaging, album artwork, and title cards where the tile-and-cutout look can be a central graphic element. It can also work for logos or badges when you want a stamped, handmade presence rather than a neutral text voice.
The overall tone is playful and a bit mischievous, mixing retro sign-painting energy with DIY zine aesthetics. The inverted, cut-out construction gives it a bold, graphic punch that feels attention-grabbing and slightly off-kilter in a deliberate, human way.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum graphic impact through an inverted, cut-out look, pairing condensed proportions with intentionally imperfect contours to evoke hand-cut signage and DIY print culture.
Because each character sits inside its own block, text forms a distinctive stepped texture and strong vertical cadence. The irregular outlines add personality, but also make it most effective at larger sizes where the cut-out shapes and counters stay clear.
