A compact, heavy sans with a deliberately irregular, hand-cut feel. Strokes are thick and generally uniform, with softly beveled corners and slightly wobbly curves that keep the outlines lively rather than geometric. Counters are small and somewhat angular in places, and terminals tend to end in blunt, faceted cuts. Proportions are tight and tall-leaning, with simple, single-storey lowercase forms and a straightforward, utilitarian construction overall.
Best suited for display settings where personality and bold silhouettes matter: posters, headlines, packaging, shop signage, and brand marks with a handcrafted or throwback tone. It can also work well for children’s materials and playful editorial callouts, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the irregular detailing reads clearly.
The face reads as casual and personable, like brush-and-marker or cut-paper lettering translated into a consistent digital style. Its uneven edge rhythm and chunky shapes create a lighthearted, slightly mischievous tone that feels retro and craft-oriented rather than corporate or technical.
The design appears intended to capture the warmth of informal hand lettering while staying legible and consistent across a full alphanumeric set. Its faceted corners and compact shapes suggest an emphasis on distinctive texture and punchy presence in short text rather than neutral body copy.
Capital forms show noticeable idiosyncrasies—such as a pointed, droplet-like inner shape in the O and a distinctive diagonal tail on Q—while lowercase maintains a simple, approachable structure. Numerals follow the same faceted, hand-drawn logic, producing strong silhouettes that prioritize character over precision at small sizes.
