A chunky, hand-made sans with uneven contours and a cut-paper silhouette. Strokes are heavy and largely monoline, but edges wobble and corners break into blunt facets, producing an intentionally irregular rhythm. Counters are compact and slightly misshapen, with occasional notches and bite-like cuts that give letters a pieced-together feel. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across the alphabet, while the tall lowercase and large numerals keep the texture loud and prominent in display sizes.
Best suited for display applications where texture is an asset: posters, headlines, event promos, album/cover art, zines, and punchy packaging or merch graphics. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that want an intentionally imperfect, handmade presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels raw, scrappy, and energetic—more DIY than polished. Its rough edges and imperfect alignment read as expressive and rebellious, with a playful, handcrafted personality that suggests posters, zines, and street-level graphics.
The design appears intended to capture a hand-cut, improvised sans look—prioritizing character and texture over geometric regularity. Its bold, irregular shapes aim to deliver immediate impact and a tactile, DIY voice in contemporary display typography.
In text, the jagged terminals and variable widths create a strong surface texture and a slightly noisy line, which can become visually busy at smaller sizes. The design’s distinctive nicks and uneven baselines contribute to its charm but favor short bursts of copy over long reading.
