A heavy, faceted display sans with angular construction that replaces curves with planar cuts and chamfered joins. Strokes are largely monoline in feel, with crisp terminals, wedge-like notches, and occasional ink-trap-style apertures that create a carved, cut-paper rhythm. Counters are compact and geometry is slightly irregular in a deliberate way, giving the alphabet a lively, hand-cut consistency while remaining clearly structured and readable at headline sizes.
Best suited to posters, headlines, titling, and logo wordmarks where its faceted detailing can be appreciated. It can also work well on packaging and promotional graphics that benefit from a punchy, cut-and-carved aesthetic rather than a neutral text voice.
The overall tone is bold and energetic, with a sharp, graphic personality that feels both retro and slightly mischievous. Its faceted silhouettes add a rugged, crafted impression—more “cut” than “drawn”—which reads as confident and attention-seeking in short bursts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual character using a consistent faceted vocabulary—turning traditionally curved forms into sharp, planar shapes for a distinctive display texture. It prioritizes impact and stylistic cohesion across letters and numerals, aiming for a crafted, graphic feel in branding and large-scale typography.
Rounded letters such as O, C, and G read as polygonal forms rather than smooth bowls, and the numerals share the same chiseled logic for a cohesive texture across alphanumerics. The face produces strong patterning in text due to the repeated angled cuts and tight internal spaces, so it performs best when spacing and size give those facets room to resolve.
