A chunky, angular sans with irregular geometry and a deliberately wobbly baseline. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline in feel, but with subtle, hand-cut tapering and uneven joins that create a carved, poster-cutout look. Bowls and counters tend toward squarish shapes, terminals are blunt, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y/K) read as sharp, faceted forms. Proportions are expansive with generous widths, while spacing and letterfit feel intentionally inconsistent for an energetic rhythm.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and personality are desired—posters, headlines, event graphics, packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for playful game UI or comic-style titling, but the irregular rhythm makes it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is playful and offbeat, with a DIY, hand-rendered attitude that reads more expressive than neutral. Its jagged contours and bouncy texture suggest comic, spooky, or punk-adjacent styling—confident and loud rather than refined.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handcrafted display voice using intentionally imperfect contours and squared counters, trading typographic neutrality for memorable, high-impact character.
Uppercase forms are especially blocky and sign-like, while lowercase maintains a compact, chunky silhouette with simple construction. Numerals follow the same cut-paper logic, with distinctive, irregular curves and corners that prioritize character over strict uniformity.
