A condensed, angular sans with monoline strokes and visibly hand-drawn geometry. Forms are built from straight segments with slight kinks and uneven angles, producing boxy counters and a mildly unstable baseline rhythm. Corners tend to be sharp and the joins feel sketch-like rather than mechanically perfect, while overall spacing stays readable but intentionally irregular. Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent narrow footprint, with simple, compact numerals that echo the same faceted construction.
Best suited to display use such as posters, album covers, packaging, and branding that benefits from an intentionally handmade, angular voice. It can work for short bursts of text—taglines, labels, UI accents—when a distinctive, slightly unruly rhythm is desired, but it will be most effective when given space and size to show its character.
The font conveys a quirky, offbeat energy—part playful, part edgy—like marker lettering refined into a consistent system. Its jittery angles and squared-in shapes give it a retro zine/comic flavor while still reading as a clean sans at text sizes.
The design appears intended to translate hand-drawn, angular sign lettering into a cohesive alphabet: compact, highly graphic, and immediately recognizable. Its controlled irregularities suggest a focus on personality and texture over strict geometric precision.
Distinctive faceting shows up across curves (e.g., round letters resolving into straight edges), and several glyphs lean toward asymmetry for character. The overall texture is strong in headlines, where the unevenness becomes a deliberate graphic pattern rather than a flaw.
