A display face built from irregular, blocky silhouettes with thin interior counters that read like hollowed, hand-drawn lines. Each glyph sits inside a rough, uneven “tile” shape, creating a cutout/collage rhythm and a lively, imperfect baseline. Strokes are mostly monoline in the interior drawing, while the surrounding shapes provide the visual mass; curves are slightly lopsided and terminals vary, giving letters a sketchy, improvised feel. Proportions are compact and vertical, with small apertures and tight counters that become more graphic than typographic at smaller sizes.
Best suited for posters, punchy headlines, album or podcast art, event flyers, and packaging where a bold, graphic texture is desired. It works especially well in short bursts—titles, labels, or callouts—where the irregular tile rhythm can be a feature rather than a distraction.
The overall tone is mischievous and DIY—evoking zines, ransom-note collage, and playful horror or Halloween-adjacent signage. Its uneven tiles and scratchy inner forms add a slightly gritty, underground attitude while staying readable enough for short phrases.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum personality through a cutout, inverted construction: solid blocks define each character’s footprint while the letterforms are carved out with thin, hand-drawn interior strokes. The goal seems to be a distinctive, tactile display look that feels crafted, imperfect, and attention-grabbing.
Consistency comes from the repeated black tile motif and the inverted light interior linework, rather than from strict stroke logic. Spacing feels intentionally uneven, and the texture becomes a strong pattern when set in words, producing a jittery, animated color across a line of text.
