A chunky, angular sans with planar, faceted strokes that replace curves with straight segments. Letterforms are heavy and compact with abrupt corners, uneven edge angles, and slightly inconsistent widths that create a lively, hand-cut feel. Counters tend to be small and often polygonal, and joins frequently form sharp notches rather than smooth transitions. Overall spacing reads on the tight side, with strong, black shapes and minimal internal detail driving legibility at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography where its black, jagged silhouette can carry the message—posters, headlines, event graphics, packaging, stickers, and merch. It also works well for playful genre cues (spooky, punk, comic, or DIY) in titles, logos, and short callouts, especially when set with generous size and breathing room.
The font projects an energetic, mischievous tone—more handmade and cartoonish than refined. Its jagged facets and irregular rhythm suggest DIY signage, zines, and playful horror or spooky-fun aesthetics rather than corporate neutrality. The dense black texture and angularity give it a bold, attention-grabbing voice with a slightly rebellious edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum personality through simplified, faceted construction—capturing a hand-made, cut-paper or carved-stencil vibe while remaining recognizably sans. Its irregular rhythm and polygonal counters prioritize character and impact over neutrality, making it a deliberate choice for expressive display settings.
The faceting is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive “chiseled” or cutout look. Round characters like O/Q/0/8 read as multi-sided polygons, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) feel especially punchy due to the thick, straight-sided construction. The overall texture is strong and graphic, with details that may visually fill in at very small sizes.
