A chunky slab-serif design with heavy, rectangular terminals and a firmly built, mechanical skeleton. Many characters feature distinctive mid-stroke cut-ins and blunt crossbars, creating a broken, notched rhythm reminiscent of stenciling or overstruck printing. Curves are broad and sturdy, bowls are open and round, and joins stay abrupt rather than calligraphic. The numerals and lowercase follow the same constructed logic, with consistent slab endings and a deliberate, slightly irregular texture across lines of text.
Best suited for display typography where its notched slab construction can be appreciated—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and label-style graphics. It can work for short bursts of copy (taglines, pull quotes) when you want a forceful, mechanical tone, but it will be most effective when given room to breathe.
The font reads as utilitarian and machine-made, but with an intentionally odd, playful twist. Its carved-through details add a sense of ruggedness and DIY engineering, giving the face a quirky, industrial character that feels vintage and slightly rebellious.
The design appears intended to hybridize classic slab-serif solidity with unconventional, engineered cut-ins that evoke stenciling, overprint artifacts, or mechanical joints. The goal seems to be a bold, instantly recognizable texture that stands out in branding and display settings.
The repeated internal cut-throughs and squared-off slabs create strong word shapes and a high-contrast texture at display sizes. In longer passages, those interruptions become a prominent pattern, so spacing and line length will noticeably affect the overall color.
