A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and tightly packed counters. The letterforms lean on circular bowls and blunt terminals, with distinctive notches and slit-like cut-ins that create a stenciled, segmented look across many glyphs. Curves are smooth and full, while corners are slightly softened, producing a consistent, blocky silhouette. The rhythm is dense and dark on the page, with short internal apertures and compact spacing that emphasize mass and shape over fine detail.
Best suited for large-size applications where its segmented details can be clearly seen—headlines, posters, event graphics, and packaging. It can also work for short logotypes or badges where a bold, distinctive silhouette is needed. For longer text or small sizes, the dense counters and cut-ins may reduce clarity, so it’s strongest as a display face.
The overall tone is bold and playful, with a retro display energy reminiscent of stencil signage and late-20th-century headline typography. The repeated cut-in details add character and a slightly industrial edge, while the rounded construction keeps it friendly and approachable. It reads as attention-grabbing and graphic rather than subtle or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive, stencil-like signature while maintaining rounded, friendly geometry. Its consistent notched motif suggests a deliberate decorative system meant to make even simple words feel branded and graphic. Overall, it aims to be memorable and energetic in display contexts.
The notched cuts appear repeatedly on both uppercase and lowercase, giving the font a recognizable texture at larger sizes. Round letters like O, Q, and 0 feel especially emblematic due to the segmented interior, and the numerals carry the same chunky, poster-like presence as the letters.
