A heavy, geometric sans built from compact block shapes with frequent internal cut-ins and slit-like counters. Many glyphs use diagonal or curved incisions that create a stencil-like, segmented construction while keeping the overall silhouette crisp and monolithic. Curves are broadly rounded and often paired with flat vertical terminals, producing a strong poster rhythm and distinctive letterfit. Numerals and capitals read as display-first forms, with counters frequently reduced to graphic wedges and notches rather than open apertures.
Best suited for large-scale display typography where the sculpted silhouettes and internal incisions can be appreciated—posters, magazine headers, event graphics, packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can work for short pull quotes or titles, but is less appropriate for body text or small UI sizes due to its dense counters and decorative cuts.
The face conveys a bold, theatrical energy with clear Art Deco and poster-era references. Its carved, inky forms feel both playful and slightly mysterious, like lettering designed for nightlife, cinema, or fashion headlines. The unusual internal cuts add motion and sparkle, giving words a stylized, attention-grabbing cadence.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a geometric sans through a decorative, cut-out construction—prioritizing visual identity, pattern, and impact. Its consistent use of slits, notches, and reduced counters suggests a deliberate ‘carved’ concept aimed at distinctive branding and headline presence.
Texture becomes prominent in longer lines: the recurring diagonal slashes and pinched counters create a patterned ‘stripe’ effect across text. The design favors strong silhouettes over conventional readability, especially in smaller sizes or dense copy, where the internal segmentation can visually merge.
