Author's note

Literally Black by Vladimir Nikolic is a free angular caps display font built from dense vertical strokes and sharp diagonal cuts. Its blocky silhouettes are broken by wedge-shaped openings, giving the lettering a forceful, futuristic edge.

Those sliced forms can echo lightning, shards, or mechanical graphics in music posters, game artwork, and streetwear merchandise. For technology branding and product packaging, the repeated notches can become a recognizable emblematic device across both lettering and supporting graphics.
