A compact, heavy display face built from blocky vertical forms and squared counters softened by rounded outer corners. Strokes are consistently thick with a slightly modular construction, and many joins terminate in blunt, chamfered-looking cuts that create a mechanical rhythm. Counters are small and mostly rectangular, with occasional slits and cut-ins that lend a semi-stenciled feel. The overall silhouette is tall and tightly set, with uniform cap height and a strong, columnar presence across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best used at display sizes where its chunky shapes and distinctive cut-ins stay crisp and intentional. It works well for posters, title cards, packaging, event graphics, and logo-style wordmarks needing a compact, high-impact voice.
The font reads as loud and deliberately oddball—part arcade-era signage, part industrial labeling. Its dense black shapes and quirky cutouts give it a playful toughness that feels suited to attention-grabbing, offbeat themes rather than neutral text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in minimal horizontal space while injecting personality through modular cuts and semi-stencil details. It aims for a distinctive, one-off display character that stands out in bold, graphic compositions.
The lowercase largely mirrors the uppercase’s squared construction, reinforcing a poster-like tone rather than a traditional text hierarchy. Numerals are similarly block-driven and high-impact, with simplified geometry that prioritizes mass and silhouette over fine detail.
