A heavy, angular display face built from blocky, faceted strokes and hard 45° cuts. Many terminals are clipped into wedges, producing small triangular notches and counterforms that read as carved or stenciled openings. Curves are largely suppressed in favor of straight segments, giving bowls and diagonals a polygonal feel. Spacing and widths vary by character, and the rhythm is deliberately irregular, with compact interior counters and strong, dark mass at text sizes.
Best used for short, high-impact settings such as posters, title cards, packaging callouts, and branding marks where its sharp facets can read clearly. It also suits game titles and UI labels, sci‑fi or industrial-themed projects, and energetic event graphics, especially when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The tone is loud and confrontational, with a techno-industrial edge that feels mechanical and slightly weaponized. Its jagged cuts and notched details suggest speed, hazard signage, or dystopian sci‑fi styling, while the uneven character shapes add a playful, off-kilter energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through heavy geometry and repeated angular cut motifs, creating a distinctive signature texture. It prioritizes character and theme over neutrality, aiming to look machined, carved, or stenciled while remaining legible in display contexts.
The distinctive notches and cut-ins are consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive “carved” texture in running text. Due to dense fills and small counters, clarity can drop quickly at small sizes or in long passages, where the spiky details become visual noise.
