This typeface uses compact, condensed silhouettes built from chunky, angular strokes. Corners are frequently chamfered and faceted, giving curves a polygonal feel (notably in C, G, O, and numerals like 8 and 0). Stems and arms keep a mostly consistent thickness, while subtle irregularities in terminals and joins add a hand-shaped, cut-paper rhythm. Spacing and widths vary by character, producing a lively, uneven texture in words without losing overall legibility.
It performs best at display sizes where the faceted construction and irregular rhythm can be appreciated—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and editorial callouts. In short bursts of text it adds character and urgency, while longer paragraphs may feel visually busy due to the tight proportions and uneven widths.
The overall tone is eccentric and energetic, with a slightly rough, handmade edge. Its narrow, punchy letterforms feel assertive and attention-seeking, while the irregular facets keep it from reading as strictly industrial, pushing it toward a playful, offbeat voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-impact sans voice with a deliberately handcrafted, angular construction. By trading smooth curves for chiseled facets and keeping stroke weight sturdy, it aims to stand out in attention-driven settings while retaining straightforward readability.
Lowercase forms are simplified and sturdy, with short ascenders/descenders and compact bowls that reinforce the tight, vertical profile. The numerals follow the same faceted construction, with especially distinctive, angular counters that make figures look emblematic and display-forward.
