A heavy, block-first sans with squared proportions and simplified geometry. Letterforms are built from thick strokes with prominent interior cutouts, creating a reverse/knockout feel where counters and apertures read as carved shapes. Curves (C, O, S) stay broadly rounded but are constrained by a boxy skeleton, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are sharp and emphatic. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with single-storey forms, round dots, and minimal detailing, yielding a strong, modular rhythm and a tightly packed color on the line.
Best suited to posters, headlines, logo wordmarks, and bold signage where the cutout/inverted construction can read crisply. It also works well for packaging, stickers, and UI badges or labels that benefit from a compact, high-impact typographic block.
The overall tone is bold and graphic, evoking utilitarian labeling and street-level signage. The carved, inverted look adds a slightly mischievous, DIY energy that feels both industrial and playful, especially in headlines and short bursts of text.
The design intention appears to be a strong display face that maximizes impact through mass, simplified structure, and deliberate interior carving. Its consistent cutout vocabulary suggests it was drawn to create striking figure/ground contrast and a distinctive, stamp-like presence across letters and numbers.
Spacing appears tight in running samples, and the internal cutouts can visually narrow joins and terminals, making the design most comfortable at larger sizes. Numerals match the same cutout logic, with clear, simplified shapes suited to attention-grabbing display settings.
