A heavy, sans-based display face with deliberately uneven geometry and a cut-paper feel. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, but edges wobble and corners vary between sharp and slightly rounded, creating a rough-hewn silhouette. Many forms lean subtly or appear off-kilter, with irregular internal counters and a mix of squared and pinched joins that makes each glyph feel individually shaped rather than mechanically constructed. Spacing and widths vary noticeably, producing a lively, uneven rhythm in words and lines of text.
Best suited for posters, headlines, logos, packaging, and short callouts where a friendly, attention-grabbing voice is needed. It can work well for children’s content, games, events, or casual food and retail branding, especially when set large with generous line spacing.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, suggesting handmade signage or cartoon titling. Its wonky balance and chunky shapes communicate energy and informality, with a slightly retro, DIY character that feels more expressive than neutral.
The design appears intended to emulate hand-cut or hand-drawn lettering while keeping the simplicity of a sans structure. By introducing controlled inconsistencies in angles, counters, and alignment, it aims to add warmth and humor without sacrificing quick readability.
The face remains strongly legible at display sizes, but its intentional irregularities and busy outlines can create a bouncy texture in longer passages. Numerals follow the same cut-out logic, with bold, simplified shapes and uneven bowls and terminals.
