A heavy, display-oriented alphabet built from large, slanted silhouette forms interrupted by sharp, stencil-like cutouts. Many characters use triangular notches and diagonal internal voids that slice through strokes, producing a faceted, collage-like construction and frequent abrupt terminals. Curves are present but feel carved and segmented, with counters that read as wedges or teardrops rather than smooth bowls. The overall texture is dense and rhythmic, with irregular internal cuts that make glyphs feel slightly different in mass and balance from letter to letter.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, punchy headlines, event promotions, album or book covers, and distinctive logotypes. It can work as a graphic accent in branding or packaging where legibility is secondary to personality and silhouette.
The font conveys a wacky, mischievous energy—somewhere between retro showcard flair and experimental poster lettering. Its sliced shapes add drama and motion, giving text a theatrical, off-kilter voice that feels intentionally odd and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to turn letterforms into bold graphic shapes, using diagonal slicing and wedge counters to create motion, surprise, and a recognizable texture. It prioritizes visual punch and stylistic character over conventional readability for extended reading.
At text sizes, the interior cuts can visually merge, so the design reads most clearly when given room and strong contrast. Numerals and lowercase follow the same carved motif, helping maintain a consistent decorative tone across mixed-case settings.
