This typeface is built from sharp, planar strokes that replace curves with faceted angles, producing a chiseled, cut-paper silhouette. Letterforms lean forward with a consistent slant and show lively irregularity in stroke direction and joint geometry, creating a hand-drawn rhythm while maintaining clear, repeatable structures across the set. Counters are often polygonal and slightly pinched, terminals end in abrupt points or blunt wedges, and spacing feels uneven in an intentional way that enhances the animated texture. Numerals match the same angular construction, with distinctive, kinked diagonals and clipped corners that keep the set cohesive in text.
Best suited to display contexts where texture and personality are desirable: posters, music and nightlife branding, game or comic-style titles, and punchy editorial headlines. It can work in short paragraphs for stylized excerpts or pull quotes, but its jagged rhythm is most effective when used with ample size and spacing.
The overall tone is bold and scrappy, with a streetwise, DIY energy. Its fractured geometry suggests urgency and attitude—more expressive than polished—while still staying readable enough for short bursts of copy.
The design appears intended to capture an improvised, hand-cut look through controlled angularity—delivering a faceted, energetic voice that stands apart from smooth geometric sans forms. It prioritizes visual bite and distinctive word-shapes over neutrality, aiming for expressive impact in display typography.
In running text, the slanted stance and broken-curve construction create a strong surface texture, especially at larger sizes where the facets read as deliberate cuts. The mix of straight stems and abrupt directional changes gives words a slightly jittery, kinetic baseline presence.
