A heavy, blocky sans with crisp, planar facets that replace curves and create a chiseled silhouette. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with abrupt angle changes, notched joins, and slightly irregular edges that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically perfect. Counters tend toward polygonal shapes, and the overall rhythm is lively, with subtly uneven widths and a bouncy baseline impression in running text. The figures and capitals read as sturdy sign shapes, while the lowercase stays compact and simplified for impact.
Best suited for display settings where the chunky, angular forms can be appreciated—posters, headlines, logos, packaging, labels, and punchy social graphics. It also works well for playful branding, game or comic-adjacent visuals, and short calls-to-action where maximum impact matters more than long-form readability.
The faceted geometry gives the font an energetic, mischievous tone—somewhere between comic display lettering and cut-paper signage. Its irregularity adds personality and a DIY edge, making it feel informal, bold, and attention-seeking rather than refined or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, characterful sans that feels cut from hard-edged facets, trading smooth curves for sharp planes to create instant visual punch. The slight irregularity suggests a goal of adding handmade energy while keeping letterforms simple and highly legible at display sizes.
In text, the strong black shapes hold together into a consistent texture, but the sharp corners and busy silhouettes make it most comfortable at larger sizes. The numerals and round letters (like O, Q, 8, 0) emphasize the polygonal construction, reinforcing the distinctive angular voice.
