A jagged, faceted sans with sharp planar cuts replacing curves throughout the alphabet. Strokes are monolinear with abrupt corners and triangular notches, producing a broken, chiseled silhouette. Proportions lean broad with a slightly irregular rhythm, and many glyphs show intentional wobble and asymmetric joins that mimic hand-cut or improvised construction. Counters tend to be squarish and angled, and terminals are often slanted or clipped, reinforcing the geometric, shard-like texture in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headline treatments, cover art, event graphics, and characterful logos. It can work well on packaging or labels where an edgy, handmade voice is desirable, and as a display accent alongside a calmer text companion.
The overall tone feels mischievous and energetic, with a slightly chaotic, off-kilter cadence. Its sharp facets and uneven stance give it a DIY attitude that reads as bold and irreverent rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to translate a cut-paper or chiseled, polygonal aesthetic into a legible display sans. By keeping stroke weight even while introducing consistent angular facets and slight irregularity, it aims to feel energetic and handcrafted while still reading clearly at larger sizes.
In running text the repeated angular cuts create a strong zig-zag texture, especially in sequences with diagonals (V/W/X/Y) and the more boxy forms (O/Q/0/8). The distinctive numerals and angular bowls make the font highly characterful but visually busy, favoring impact over long-form comfort.
