A chunky, angular display face built from heavy, block-like silhouettes with irregular, hand-cut geometry. Many letters feature triangular notches and slashed counters that read like stencil breaks or carved incisions, creating a strong black/white rhythm. Corners skew and edges tilt slightly from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a deliberately uneven texture while keeping an overall squared, condensed-to-normal structure within each form. Counters are small and often asymmetric, and curves—where present—are minimized into faceted shapes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, album or EP artwork, festival/event flyers, punchy headlines, and brand marks that want an intentionally irregular voice. It can also work for short labels, packaging callouts, or game/entertainment titles where texture and attitude are more important than long-form readability.
The font projects a mischievous, offbeat energy—part cut-paper collage, part chiseled signage. Its sharp notches and uneven construction feel rebellious and handmade, lending a quirky, game-like tone that can swing from fun to slightly menacing depending on context.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum silhouette impact with a distinctive cut-and-notch motif, prioritizing character and texture over neutrality. Its irregular construction suggests an experimental, handcrafted approach meant to stand out quickly in bold, attention-grabbing applications.
In text, the frequent internal cuts add distinctive patterning but also raise visual noise, especially in smaller sizes or dense paragraphs. The strongest impact comes from generous sizing and spacing, where the carved details become a graphic feature rather than interference.
