A condensed, very heavy display face built from tall, angular forms with deliberately uneven sides and slightly warped verticals. The black letter shapes are interrupted by thin interior cut lines and small voids that read like carved or scratched inlines, creating a layered, hollowed look without losing overall mass. Counters are tight and often rectangular, terminals are blunt, and joins can feel pinched or fractured, giving the alphabet a rugged rhythm and a lively, inconsistent texture across letters and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, title cards, album/film typography, and bold packaging or label work where texture is desirable. It can also serve for logos or wordmarks that want a carved, distressed presence, but it is less appropriate for small sizes or extended reading due to the busy interior detailing.
The tone is tense and graphic, mixing a vintage pulp/poster energy with a gritty, hand-cut sensibility. Its sharp corners and scratch-like inlines suggest urgency and attitude, leaning toward darker, dramatic branding rather than neutral communication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint while adding character through carved inline interruptions and rough, irregular silhouettes. It prioritizes expressive texture and a cut-from-solid feel over smooth, uniform construction, targeting attention-grabbing display typography.
The inline cuts vary in placement and thickness from glyph to glyph, which increases visual noise in longer settings and makes the design feel intentionally rough. The condensed proportions stack well vertically for headlines, while the dense interiors and tight counters favor larger sizes where the carved details can remain visible.
