A heavy, all-caps-forward display sans built from sharp, planar facets in place of smooth curves. Strokes are consistently thick with abrupt angle changes, creating polygonal counters (notably in round letters) and clipped terminals throughout. The outlines show deliberate irregularities and asymmetrical cuts that give the rhythm a hand-carved, slightly jittery texture while keeping overall forms compact and sturdy. Lowercase is simplified and robust, with short extenders and chunky joins; numerals follow the same faceted logic for a cohesive, cut-from-paper silhouette.
Best suited to display roles such as posters, headlines, titles, and branding marks where the faceted texture can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging, event graphics, and game or entertainment UI elements that benefit from a rugged, stylized voice; avoid dense body text where the irregular cuts may compete with readability.
The overall tone is assertive and gritty, mixing a geometric, chiseled feel with playful unpredictability. Its jagged contours suggest handmade signage or props, lending a quirky energy that reads as adventurous and slightly mischievous rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to translate a carved or folded, polygonal construction into a compact sans alphabet, prioritizing impact and a recognizable silhouette over smooth refinement. Its consistent faceting across letters and numbers suggests a deliberate system meant for expressive, characterful display typography.
The faceting produces small interior notches and tight apertures in several letters, which adds character but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. Set with generous tracking and used in short bursts, the angular rhythm becomes a distinctive visual motif.
