This typeface uses heavy, compact strokes with rounded, geometric bowls and subtly chamfered or notched terminals that create small triangular cut-ins at joins and ends. Curves are smooth and circular, while straight strokes stay clean and vertical, producing a sturdy, poster-like rhythm. Counters are relatively tight but remain readable, and the tall lowercase keeps lines dense and attention-grabbing. Overall spacing feels assertive and even, with a consistent, carved-in silhouette across letters and numerals.
Best suited for display roles such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging titles, and attention-grabbing signage where its carved details and heavy color can carry the design. It can also work for short subheads or callouts when paired with a simpler text face for longer reading.
The notched, chiseled details give the face a retro display flavor—confident and energetic rather than formal. Its chunky geometry reads as friendly and playful, with a sporty, headline-forward attitude that feels suited to bold statements and punchy messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive notched signature, combining geometric sans structure with incised, decorative terminals for character. It prioritizes strong presence and memorable shapes over quiet neutrality, targeting bold editorial and brand-forward applications.
The diagonal cut-ins are a defining motif, appearing across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, lending a quasi-stencil or incised look without breaking forms apart. The sample text shows strong word shapes at large sizes, while dense strokes and tight counters suggest it will feel most comfortable when given ample size and breathing room.
