A compact, heavy display face built from blocky silhouettes with deliberate internal cut-outs that create a hollowed, punched-in look. Strokes are thick and straight-sided with minimal modulation, while counters are simplified and often squared off, producing a strongly graphic rhythm. Many forms show small notches, slots, and inset shapes that read like stenciling or lettering cut from a solid sheet, and the overall texture stays dense and high-impact across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works best for posters, headlines, and bold packaging moments where a compact footprint and strong contrast are desirable. It’s also well-suited to signage-style applications, labels, stickers, and logo wordmarks that can take advantage of the cut-out character at medium to large sizes.
The font conveys a utilitarian, industrial tone—like safety signage, equipment labeling, or packaging marks where bold presence matters. Its cut-out detailing adds a slightly rugged, DIY or workshop character, giving the design a retro-influenced, no-nonsense voice that still feels playful in short bursts.
The design appears intended to merge a solid, condensed display skeleton with a hollowed, punched treatment that increases visual interest and creates a distinctive inverted mark-making effect. The goal seems to be maximum impact in minimal space, with a functional, stencil-adjacent personality.
The reversed, cut-out construction makes the letterforms feel carved from solid blocks, and the consistent insetting helps maintain clarity at larger sizes. In running text the strong black massing and internal slots produce a striking, poster-like texture, best suited to short lines and emphatic wording rather than extended reading.
