A heavy, display-oriented sans with a modular, geometric build and pronounced stroke contrast created by alternating solid blocks and thin connecting strokes. Bowls and counters lean toward circular and semicircular geometry (notably in C, G, O, Q), while many verticals read as rectangular slabs. Terminals often appear as clean cut-ins or flat chops, and several joins are sharply angled, giving letters like M, N, V, W, and Y a faceted, zigzag rhythm. The lowercase mixes rounded forms with simplified, blocky stems, and the overall spacing and silhouettes prioritize bold shape recognition over smooth, continuous stroke flow.
Best used at large sizes where its bold silhouettes and high-contrast construction remain clear and intentional. It suits headlines, posters, packaging, and branding marks that benefit from a playful, graphic tone, and it can add personality to short bursts of text such as pull quotes or section headers.
The font communicates a lively, retro-tinged personality with a toy-like, cut-paper quality. Its dramatic thick–thin interplay and chunky geometry feel energetic and graphic, suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to create a distinctive, memorable display voice by combining geometric shapes with dramatic contrast and playful, cut-in terminals. Its goal is impact and character—more emblematic than utilitarian—while retaining a broadly sans structure for straightforward recognition.
Curves are frequently expressed as filled semicircles against thin strokes, producing distinctive counters and a strong black/white pattern on the page. Several glyphs use idiosyncratic constructions (e.g., hooked or tapered strokes and clipped joins) that add character but make the texture intentionally irregular and display-centric.
