A heavy, block-built display face with stencil-like interruptions running through nearly every glyph. The letterforms are constructed from chunky verticals and broad bowls, with irregular internal slashes and chips that create a worn, segmented texture. Curves are simplified and geometric, counters are often partially occluded, and terminals tend to end bluntly, producing a compact, high-ink silhouette. The overall rhythm is intentionally uneven due to the varied cut patterns, giving repeated letters a lively, fractured look while maintaining consistent weight and a strong baseline presence.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, event branding, album or track artwork, game title screens, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for logos or badges where a gritty, stenciled aesthetic is desirable, but is less appropriate for long-form reading.
The tone reads loud and hands-on: like spray-stenciled signage, DIY gig posters, or rough-marked shipping crates. The distressed cuts add a mischievous, slightly anarchic energy that feels both industrial and playful, emphasizing attitude over polish.
The design appears intended to merge a solid, geometric display foundation with deliberate stencil breaks and distressed cutouts, producing a one-off, attention-grabbing texture. The goal is clear impact with a rebellious, handmade feel rather than typographic neutrality.
At larger sizes the broken strokes and cut-ins become a defining texture; at smaller sizes those internal gaps can start to close up visually, so spacing and scale will matter. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest visual punch, and the repeated vertical slicing creates a recognizable pattern across words.
