A compact, heavy sans with monoline strokes and subtly uneven, hand-cut geometry. Letters are built from broad, straight segments with softened corners, producing slightly trapezoidal bowls and gently canted joins that keep the texture lively. Uppercase forms read blocky and assertive, while the lowercase is simple and sturdy with single-storey shapes and minimal interior detailing. Numerals follow the same chunky construction, with open counters and broad curves that prioritize impact over precision.
Best suited to headlines and short, punchy copy where its chunky shapes can read clearly at medium to large sizes. It works well for playful branding, packaging, event posters, and merchandise graphics, especially when a friendly, informal voice is desired.
The overall tone is approachable and mischievous, like cut-paper signage or a playful display face. Its bouncy rhythm and softened construction make it feel friendly and casual rather than technical, lending personality without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears intended as a characterful, high-impact sans for display settings, balancing strong silhouettes with soft corners and a slightly irregular rhythm to avoid a rigid, mechanical feel.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and compact, creating a dense, poster-like color in text. Round characters (O, Q, o) show slightly squarish curvature, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are thick and emphatic, reinforcing a bold, graphic silhouette.
