This typeface uses compact, condensed letterforms built from hard angles and slightly uneven edges, giving a hand-cut, faceted silhouette. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with subtle wobble and small notches that create a rough, crafted rhythm rather than mechanical precision. Counters are tight and often polygonal, and many joins terminate in wedge-like corners, producing a distinctive, chiseled texture in words. Spacing reads slightly irregular, reinforcing an intentionally raw, poster-like presence.
Best suited to display sizes where its angular cuts and irregular rhythm can be appreciated—posters, headlines, cover art, labels, and punchy branding moments. It can also work for short UI labels or game/entertainment graphics when a gritty, handmade texture is desirable rather than a strictly uniform tone.
The overall tone is mischievous and edgy, with a DIY attitude that feels closer to cut paper or improvised signage than to a neutral text sans. Its compact shapes and jagged facets give it an energetic, slightly rebellious voice suited to attention-grabbing messages.
The design intent appears to be a characterful display face that evokes hand-crafted, cut-from-card or chiseled lettering while retaining a simplified sans structure. It prioritizes personality and texture over neutrality, aiming to add attitude and visual bite in short strings and titles.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent angular construction, with the lowercase staying relatively upright and compact, helping mixed-case settings maintain a strong vertical cadence. Numerals match the same faceted logic, keeping the set visually coherent for short numeric callouts.
