A very heavy, compact display face built from chunky, rounded forms and simplified geometry. Across the set, each glyph is interrupted by irregular horizontal breaks and notches, giving a cut-out/stenciled feel with a distressed, “torn” edge character rather than clean, mechanical apertures. Curves are broad and bulbous, counters are small and often pinched, and joins can feel slightly lumpy, producing an intentionally uneven rhythm. The lowercase leans toward single-story shapes with stout stems and short ascenders/descenders, while numerals follow the same blocked-in construction with conspicuous internal cut marks.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event promotion, and attention-grabbing packaging or album/cover graphics. It can work for playful branding moments or punchy pull quotes, but the distressed cut-ins make it less appropriate for long-form reading or small UI text.
The overall tone is mischievous and offbeat, like a loud handmade poster that’s been sliced, scuffed, or patched together. Its exaggerated weight and quirky interruptions read as energetic and humorous, with a slightly gritty, DIY edge.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum visual impact through mass and interruption—combining friendly, rounded silhouettes with deliberate breaks to create a one-off, experimental display voice that feels handmade and rebellious.
The repeated mid-stroke cut lines create a strong horizontal texture that becomes more noticeable as lines of text stack, producing a distinctive banding effect. Because the counters and interior details are tight at this weight, clarity will improve with generous tracking and at larger sizes.
