A chunky, heavy display face with irregular, faceted outlines that feel cut or chipped rather than drawn with smooth curves. Strokes are broadly consistent in thickness, but the contours wobble and kink, creating an intentionally uneven silhouette and a lively rhythm across words. Counters are small and sometimes off-center, and terminals often end in blunt, angular wedges. Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, reinforcing the handmade, collage-like texture in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, stickers, and bold packaging where texture and personality matter more than typographic neutrality. It also works well for playful branding, album/playlist artwork, and event flyers that benefit from a handcrafted, slightly chaotic tone. For readability, use generous sizing and consider a bit of extra letterspacing when needed.
The font communicates a playful, unruly energy—more mischievous than menacing—like a DIY poster or a cartoon title card. Its jagged edges and offbeat proportions give it a humorous, chaotic charm that reads as informal and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver an instant hit of personality through irregular, chipped geometry—evoking hand-cut paper, rough carving, or cartoonish block lettering. It prioritizes silhouette, texture, and attitude over refinement, aiming to stand out quickly in display contexts.
In continuous text the texture becomes dense and bouncy, with strong black shapes and intermittent sharp notches that create a distinctive sparkle. The letterforms stay legible at display sizes, but the irregular contours and tight interior spaces can start to clog if set too small or too tightly tracked.
