A geometric sans with round bowls and compact, sturdy construction, shown with heavy strokes and clean, upright posture. Many letters feature distinctive triangular nicks and small cut-ins at joins and corners, creating a consistent chipped/stencil-like detailing across the set. Curves stay smooth and circular while terminals tend toward flat cuts, producing a crisp rhythm and strong silhouette at display sizes.
Best suited for branding, posters, headlines, packaging, and social or editorial titles where the notched detailing can read clearly. It can also work for short UI or product labels when set large enough to preserve the cut-in shapes, but the distinctive interior nicks make it less ideal for long-form small text.
This typeface feels playful and slightly mischievous, with a graphic, cut-paper energy. The sharp notches and punctured counters add a subtle “glitched” or stenciled attitude that reads contemporary and attention-seeking while still remaining friendly.
The design appears intended to take a familiar geometric sans foundation and inject character through repeated notch and cutout motifs. Those details add texture and distinctiveness without sacrificing overall legibility, suggesting a display-forward font meant to be recognized quickly.
The sample text shows strong word shapes and even color, with particularly prominent circular forms (O, Q, e) that emphasize the geometric backbone. The recurring corner cut-ins on letters like E, F, K, and N create a cohesive motif that gives the face a customized, crafted look rather than a purely neutral tone.
