A heavy, geometric sans with rounded bowls and crisp, clean edges, featuring a signature horizontal slicing motif through many curved forms (notably in O/C/G/Q and several lowercase counters). The forms lean toward wide, stable proportions with short joins and simplified terminals, creating a compact, blocky rhythm. Contrast is expressed through strong thick-to-thin relationships in angled strokes and the deliberate negative-space cuts, yielding a high-impact silhouette that stays consistent across the set.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, event graphics, and brand marks where the cutout counters can be read clearly at larger sizes. It can also work for short UI labels, cover titles, or punchy social graphics when high contrast and strong silhouettes are desirable; for long text, the pronounced internal cuts may become visually busy at smaller sizes.
This typeface projects a punchy, playful confidence with a distinctly retro-futurist flavor. The recurring “cut-through” counters give it a graphic, almost logo-like energy that feels bold, cheeky, and attention-seeking. Overall it reads as modern display-first, with a hint of sci‑fi and pop signage.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate visual recognition through a distinctive counter treatment and simplified geometric structure. Its bold massing and consistent slicing details suggest a focus on branding, headlines, and statement typography where character shapes can double as graphic elements.
Round glyphs carry the strongest personality due to the repeated horizontal apertures, while straighter letters remain more conventional, creating an appealing alternation of solid blocks and carved negative spaces. Numerals echo the same motif (notably 0/6/8/9), reinforcing a cohesive, system-like identity across letters and figures.
