A compact, heavy sans with squared bowls, flattened curves, and a distinctly hand-cut irregularity. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many terminals end in blunt, slightly angled or notched cuts that create a chiseled silhouette. Counters are small and often squarish (notably in O, P, R, and a), while joins and corners show subtle wobble that breaks strict geometric uniformity. Lowercase forms are tall and sturdy, with simplified construction and occasional quirky details (such as single-storey a and g, and a narrow, hook-like j).
Best suited to display applications where dense, blocky letterforms can read as intentional style: posters, bold headlines, packaging, storefront-style signage, and logo wordmarks. It works particularly well when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing to offset the compact counters and heavy texture.
The overall tone feels bold and punchy, mixing industrial sign-lettering with a casual, handmade edge. Its slightly imperfect geometry gives it an energetic, approachable character rather than a purely technical one, lending a retro display flavor suited to attention-grabbing typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint while retaining a handcrafted, cutout-like personality. By combining simplified sans structures with irregular terminals and squarish counters, it aims to evoke bold signage and playful retro branding rather than neutral text setting.
The rhythm is tight and compact, with variable internal shapes and small counters that make the texture dense at smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same blocky logic, with squared apertures and sturdy, poster-like presence; punctuation appears minimal in the sample, but the font maintains a consistent cut-terminal motif across letters.
