A condensed, all-caps-forward display face built from solid rectangular silhouettes with irregular interior cut-outs that form the letter shapes. Strokes read as chunky and geometric on the outside, while the counters and inner carving are fluid, uneven, and sometimes wedge-like, creating a strong figure/ground flip. Corners are mostly squared and orthogonal, with occasional tapered notches and sharp internal angles that add a distressed, hand-cut rhythm. Spacing and sidebearings feel intentionally inconsistent across glyphs, reinforcing a collage-like texture and a punchy, high-contrast black/white pattern in text.
Best suited to large, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, headlines, album covers, and event flyers where the cut-out interiors can be appreciated. It can also work for bold packaging marks or short logo-type that benefits from a distinctive figure/ground effect, but it is less appropriate for long passages or small UI text.
The font carries a bold, edgy energy—part stencil signage, part cut-paper experimental type. Its inverted, hollowed construction gives it a playful but slightly ominous tone, evoking underground posters, DIY printmaking, and late-night club or zine aesthetics. The wavy internal forms add a surreal, psychedelic twist that keeps the texture lively and unpredictable.
The design appears intended to maximize impact through an inverted, cut-out construction: stable, block-like outer forms paired with expressive internal carving. The goal seems to be a strong display texture that feels handmade and experimental while remaining broadly alphabetic and punchy in short lines.
The square outer blocks create strong alignment and a tiled look when set tightly, while the inner negative shapes do most of the legibility work. At small sizes the carved details may visually merge, but at display sizes the alternating black/white shapes become the primary personality of the design.
