A jagged, faceted all-caps and lowercase design built from sharp planar strokes in place of curves. Letterforms lean subtly backward with an uneven baseline rhythm and deliberately irregular construction, giving each glyph a hand-cut, shard-like silhouette. Strokes are monolinear overall, with abrupt joins and pointed terminals; counters are often angular and simplified. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, and spacing feels lively and inconsistent in an intentional, expressive way.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, album covers, titles, and expressive branding where a jagged, handcrafted voice is desirable. It can also work for display text in games or event graphics that benefit from an aggressive, stylized tone. For longer passages, its irregular rhythm and spiky detail are likely to be more effective in larger sizes and with generous spacing.
The font reads as energetic and rebellious, with a mischievous, graffiti-adjacent attitude. Its fractured geometry and off-kilter stance create a tense, kinetic feel—more punk zine than polished signage. Overall, it conveys a raw, handmade character that favors personality over refinement.
The design appears intended to translate a hand-drawn, carved-from-shards aesthetic into a consistent alphabet, prioritizing angular texture and attitude. It aims to feel spontaneous and handmade while maintaining enough structural consistency for display typography. The backward-leaning stance and fractured strokes reinforce a deliberately unruly, attention-seeking presence.
Uppercase forms tend to be more emblematic and rune-like, while lowercase retains the same faceted logic but with looser, more improvised shapes. Numerals follow the same angular language, appearing bold and attention-grabbing, with a few glyphs that feel especially idiosyncratic in their internal angles and cut-ins.
