A heavy, geometric sans with oversized, rounded bowls and mostly straight, blocky stems. The design uses distinctive inline cut-ins and small circular notches that interrupt strokes and counters, creating a pseudo-stencil, “punched” look across many letters and numerals. Curves are broad and smooth while terminals are generally flat, producing a compact, high-ink silhouette with minimal interior space and strong, uniform presence.
Best suited to large-size display work where the cut-in details can be appreciated—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and punchy social graphics. It can also work for short, bold statements or labels, but extended paragraph text will feel visually busy due to the frequent internal interruptions.
The repeated cut-in details give the font a mischievous, novelty tone—somewhere between retro display lettering and modern playful branding. It reads as bold and attention-grabbing rather than neutral, with a crafted, slightly quirky personality that feels energetic and informal.
Likely intended as a high-impact display face that combines simple geometric construction with a unique, repeatable “punched/stencil” motif to create instant recognizability. The goal appears to be strong shelf presence and a playful, retro-leaning character without relying on serif forms.
The inline notches and punctures become more visually prominent as sizes decrease, and they can create dense texture in longer lines. The forms stay largely geometric, but the deliberate interruptions add rhythm and a recognizable signature across the set, including numerals.
