A heavy, block-built display face with crisp, angular geometry and frequent triangular notches cut into stems and corners. Letters are constructed from straight strokes with minimal curvature, giving an almost carved or machined feel, while counters tend toward rectangular forms. Terminals are square and abrupt, and many glyphs include consistent inset ‘bites’ that create a jagged rhythm across the alphabet. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an intentionally irregular, hand-cut look while maintaining a coherent modular structure.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, title cards, packaging callouts, and logo-style wordmarks where its distinctive cut-in details can be appreciated. It can also work well for playful branding, event graphics, or game and entertainment titling that benefits from an unconventional, characterful display voice.
The overall tone is mischievous and offbeat, with a bold, poster-ready presence that feels deliberately unconventional. Its sharp cut-ins and chunky silhouettes read as energetic and slightly mischievous, leaning into a retro-novelty attitude rather than refinement or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual character through a simple, modular construction: solid blocks, sharp facets, and repeated notch motifs that make each glyph feel custom-cut. The goal seems to be a memorable, decorative texture that stands out immediately in display use while remaining consistent enough to set words and short phrases.
In text, the dense black shapes create strong texture and high visual impact, but the repeated notches and tight interior spaces can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. The numerals and lowercase maintain the same carved detailing, helping the set feel unified and intentionally stylized.
