A compact, heavy display face with crisp slab-like terminals and frequent wedge-shaped notches that create a cut-in, almost stencil-like silhouette. Strokes are thick with pronounced contrast created by sharp internal cutouts, producing bright counters and distinctive mid-stroke apertures (notably in rounded forms). Curves are smooth and geometric, while joins and serifs resolve into flat, squared ends with angled spurs, giving the alphabet a rhythmic, carved look. The overall spacing feels moderately tight, with strong color on the page and highly individualized letterforms.
Best suited to short display settings where its notched details can be appreciated—headlines, poster typography, logo wordmarks, packaging titles, and book or game covers. It can work for brief emphasis lines in larger sizes, but the decorative cut-ins and dense weight make it less appropriate for long-form text or small UI sizes.
The font projects a retro showcard energy with a mischievous, storybook eccentricity. Its sharp notches and flared slabs add a theatrical, poster-ready personality that feels both vintage and slightly gothic, lending headlines a bold, characterful voice.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a slab-serif foundation as an expressive display style, using repeated cutout and wedge motifs to add character and visual sparkle while maintaining a sturdy, upright structure.
Distinctive triangular cut-ins recur across capitals and lowercase, creating a consistent motif that reads like chiseled or folded corners. Numerals follow the same decorative logic, staying legible while leaning into the same notched, high-impact styling.
