A heavy, rounded display face with compact proportions and a tall x-height. Strokes are cut with narrow inline voids and small internal notches that create a carved, slightly distressed look, while counters remain generally tight and simplified. The letterforms lean on broad, pillowy shapes with subtly uneven edges and stroke modulation that feels hand-cut rather than geometric, producing a lively rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where its chunky silhouettes and inline carving can be appreciated—posters, packaging, event promos, playful branding, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for large-scale signage or apparel graphics where the distressed inline detail adds visual interest.
The overall tone is bold and cheeky, with a casual, handcrafted energy. The inline cut-outs add a poster-like, vintage sign feel, keeping large black shapes from becoming too flat while emphasizing a rugged, playful personality.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with friendly, rounded forms while adding depth and handmade flavor through carved inline cut-outs. The goal appears to be a distinctive display voice that reads quickly at large sizes and brings a tactile, poster-ready texture to bold typography.
The texture-like cut-ins vary from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a deliberately imperfect, organic consistency. At smaller sizes the inline details may visually merge, while at headline sizes they read as character-defining carved accents.
