A heavy, geometric display face built from blocky silhouettes with rounded outer curves and frequent triangular notches and cut-ins. Many characters show collapsed or extremely tight counters, creating a mostly solid, poster-like mass with occasional wedge-shaped openings (notably in C, G, S, and the diagonals). Terminals are blunt and flat, joins are abrupt, and curves are broadly circular, producing a punchy rhythm that alternates between smooth arcs and sharp angular bites. The overall spacing feels generous and the letterforms read as wide, with simplified construction and high visual uniformity across the set.
Best suited for display settings such as posters, headlines, title cards, and bold brand marks where its solid mass and distinctive notches can read clearly. It also works well for packaging and short, high-impact messaging that benefits from a playful, attention-grabbing texture.
The tone is bold and mischievous, with a distinctly playful, mid-century/arcade-like flavor. Its notches and near-solid interiors give it a cut-paper or signage feel—more fun and eccentric than formal—suggesting energy, humor, and a slightly rebellious edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through simplified, near-solid letterforms while retaining character via consistent wedge-like cutouts. It prioritizes graphic presence and a distinctive texture over conventional readability, making it ideal as a statement display font.
Legibility is strongest at large sizes where the notches and collapsed counters become a recognizable texture; at smaller sizes the interior detail can merge into solid shapes. Numerals follow the same chunky logic, with simplified forms and prominent cut-ins that keep the set visually cohesive.
