A high-contrast slab-serif display design with heavy, blocky stems interrupted by sharp horizontal cut-ins that create a banded, cutout effect across many letters. The forms mix rounded bowls with squared terminals, producing chunky silhouettes that read as slabs but with unconventional internal voids and notch-like joins. Serifs are prominent and blunt, while counters are often split or constricted by the midline incisions, giving the alphabet a distinctive, engineered rhythm. Lowercase shows a tall x-height and simplified construction, and several glyphs (including numerals) lean into the same sliced, bifurcated motif for a cohesive texture in words.
Best suited to display typography where its cutout slabs and banded texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, branding marks, and packaging. It works particularly well when set large with generous spacing, where the unconventional internal breaks become a deliberate graphic motif rather than a legibility constraint.
The overall tone feels playful and eccentric—like vintage poster lettering filtered through a modern cutout or stencil logic. The repeated midline interruptions add a mischievous, slightly surreal character that reads as both decorative and attention-grabbing, with a retro showcard energy.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a slab-serif foundation with a consistent cut-and-splice gesture, turning traditional letterforms into a decorative system. The goal seems to be maximal visual personality and a memorable word shape for display use, rather than neutral text setting.
The repeated horizontal breaks can visually connect across a line of text, creating a strong stripe through words; this is striking at larger sizes but can reduce interior clarity at smaller settings. Round letters such as O/C/G and the numerals emphasize the contrast between smooth curves and abrupt cut-ins, reinforcing the font’s quirky, constructed personality.
