A heavy, blocky sans with softly rounded outer curves and distinctive wedge-like notches that cut into joins, terminals, and counters. The letterforms feel slightly irregular in their internal carving, creating a hand-cut, poster-like texture while keeping a consistent, upright stance. Counters are compact and often asymmetrically shaped, with simplified geometry and sturdy stems that prioritize mass over refinement. Numerals match the same chunky build, with bold, simplified forms and occasional angular bite marks that echo the alphabet.
Best suited to large-size display settings such as posters, bold headlines, event graphics, packaging, and punchy logo wordmarks where its carved texture can be appreciated. It can work for short bursts of text in branding or merchandising, but the dense shapes and busy internal cuts make it less appropriate for extended reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and cheeky, leaning toward a retro display feel that suggests cut-paper signage or cartoon title lettering. Its exaggerated weight and carved details give it a tactile, crafted personality that reads as informal and attention-seeking rather than technical or corporate.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive carved/bitten detailing, giving a crafted, retro sign-painting or cutout impression while staying within a bold sans framework. The goal seems to be recognizability and personality over neutrality, with consistent text color and strong silhouettes for attention-grabbing display use.
The design’s character is driven by repeated internal notches and triangular cut-ins—visible across rounds like C/O/Q and in diagonals such as K/V/W/X—producing a rhythmic, chiseled silhouette. Spacing in the sample text appears generous enough to keep the dense shapes from clogging, but the texture remains visually busy by intent.
