A wiry, monoline display face built from angular, faceted strokes and sharp corners. Letterforms lean forward with a consistent skew, and many terminals end in small wedge-like cuts that add a chiseled, polygonal feel. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with narrow, upright stems contrasted by occasional wider bowls and open counters, producing an uneven, lively rhythm across words. Curves are largely avoided in favor of straight segments, giving both caps and lowercase a scratchy, constructed silhouette; numerals follow the same hard-edged geometry.
Best suited to short display settings where the jagged construction and skew can be appreciated—posters, editorial headlines, event graphics, album or book covers, and playful UI/branding moments. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that want a deliberately handmade, irregular edge, especially when paired with a calmer companion typeface for body text.
The overall tone is eccentric and improvisational—like quick marker lettering constrained to straight segments. Its irregularities read as intentionally odd and expressive, projecting a slightly mischievous, indie, DIY character rather than polished neutrality.
The design appears intended to emulate eccentric hand lettering with a rule-based, straight-segment construction—prioritizing personality and texture over typographic regularity. Its forward slant and chopped terminals seem aimed at creating motion and attitude, making the face feel experimental and intentionally unconventional.
Spacing and sidebearings feel intentionally inconsistent, which amplifies the jittery texture in running text. The sharp joins and narrow strokes create a high-energy color at larger sizes, while the faceted shapes can become visually busy when set too small or too tight.
