A heavy, right-leaning display face built from compact, angular letterforms with broad strokes and squared terminals. Many glyphs are interrupted by diagonal slashes and internal notches that create a segmented, cut-up silhouette, producing a strong stencil-like rhythm. Curves (as in C, O, and S) stay chunky and faceted, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) feel compressed and tightly constructed. The overall texture is dense and high-impact, with irregular internal cuts that add visual noise and motion across words.
Best suited for short, bold statements where texture and attitude matter more than maximum legibility—posters, headlines, logo wordmarks, event promotions, and packaging accents. It will perform strongest at medium to large sizes where the internal slashes read as intentional detailing rather than visual clutter.
The diagonal breaks and aggressive slant give the font a fast, edgy attitude, like distressed signage or stylized action lettering. It reads as intentionally unruly and attention-seeking, balancing a tough, industrial feel with a wacky, experimental twist.
The design appears intended to turn familiar sans forms into a distinctive, fractured mark through systematic diagonal slicing and rugged interior shaping. The goal seems to be instant impact and a memorable, unconventional voice for display typography.
The recurring diagonal cut motif is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, helping the set feel unified despite the irregular interior shapes. Counters are often partially occluded or reshaped by the slashes, which increases texture but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes.
