A clean, sans-based design with subtly irregular, chiseled-looking terminals that create a hand-cut rhythm rather than a purely geometric finish. Strokes stay fairly even, but many joins and ends resolve into small wedge-like cuts, giving corners a slightly sharp, faceted character. Curves are smooth and open, while diagonals and arms often show a gentle, stylized flare that makes letters feel individually shaped. Overall spacing reads sturdy and readable, with a lively, slightly uneven texture across words.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where the angular terminal details can be appreciated—such as posters, packaging, identity accents, and signage. It can also work for UI or editorial callouts when a friendly, slightly unconventional sans voice is desired without sacrificing legibility.
The tone is informal and personable, with a playful edge created by the angled cuts and mildly eccentric letter shaping. It feels energetic without becoming noisy, suggesting a contemporary, handmade sensibility rather than strict neutrality.
The design appears intended to bridge straightforward sans readability with handcrafted character, adding distinctive terminal cuts and mild irregularities to create a recognizable texture. It aims for a modern, approachable voice that stands apart from neutral grotesques while remaining versatile for display-driven layouts.
In text, the distinctive terminal treatment is especially noticeable on capitals and diagonals, producing a subtle forward-leaning momentum even though the forms remain upright. Numerals match the same faceted finishing, keeping the set cohesive for display use.
