A heavy, compact display sans with broad proportions and rounded-rectangle construction in the curved letters. Strokes are extremely thick with crisp, flat terminals and pronounced internal cut-ins that read like ink-trap notches, creating sharp white wedges at joins and tight counters. Round forms (O/C/G/Q and numerals) feel squarish and superelliptical rather than purely circular, while verticals and horizontals stay rigid and slab-like. Spacing is tight and the overall rhythm is dense, producing a strong, dark texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to large-scale applications where the notched details can be appreciated: posters, bold headlines, event graphics, and packaging. It can also work for compact logo marks and branding that benefits from a strong silhouette and a playful, engineered texture.
The font projects a loud, cheeky confidence—equal parts retro advertising and modern street-ready boldness. Its chunky silhouettes and engineered cut-ins give it a stylized, attention-grabbing personality that feels fun, slightly industrial, and intentionally over-the-top.
The design appears aimed at maximum impact: a geometric, rounded-rectangle display sans that stays highly legible by silhouette while adding character through deliberate internal cut-ins. It prioritizes visual presence and a distinctive word-shape over neutrality, making it ideal for statement typography.
The notched joins create distinctive sparkle in negative space at larger sizes, but the same tight counters and dense color can merge in smaller settings. Numerals share the same squarish roundness and heavy mass, keeping a consistent, poster-like tone across alphanumerics.
