A chunky display face built from heavy, blocklike letterforms with irregular, faceted edges. Strokes appear carved or cut rather than drawn, producing abrupt corners, small notches, and wedge-shaped terminals that vary from glyph to glyph. Counters are compact and sometimes off-center, and several letters use slit-like openings that enhance the rugged texture. The overall rhythm is lively and slightly bouncy, with uneven contour tension and subtly shifting silhouettes that keep words visually animated.
Best suited for display settings where impact and character are priorities—posters, punchy headlines, merch, playful branding, and packaging. It also works well for comic-style titling and short promotional lines, especially when set with generous tracking and plenty of whitespace.
The font projects a goofy, rebellious energy—more hand-made and mischievous than polished. Its rough-cut geometry and exaggerated heft feel comic and attention-grabbing, suggesting humor, chaos, and a DIY attitude rather than refinement.
The design intent reads as an expressive, cut-paper or carved-sign look that prioritizes silhouette, texture, and humor over uniformity. It aims to feel handmade and experimental, delivering an intentionally irregular voice for bold, attention-driven typography.
Texture is a defining feature: the repeated nicks, chamfers, and angled cuts create strong silhouette interest at large sizes. Spacing appears intentionally uneven to preserve the irregular personality, and the dense black shapes can visually merge at small sizes or in long paragraphs, favoring short bursts of text.
