A chunky display face built from heavy, blocklike forms with irregular, chiseled contours. Strokes stay broadly uniform, while corners alternate between blunt, angled facets and soft, scooped cut-ins that create a carved, cutout look. Counters are compact and often use teardrop or oval holes, and many glyphs feature distinctive notches and bite-shaped intrusions that produce a lively, uneven rhythm. Spacing and letter widths vary noticeably across the set, reinforcing an intentionally offbeat texture in words and lines.
Works best in short, bold applications such as posters, headlines, event promos, and playful branding. It can add character to packaging, labels, stickers, and social graphics where a strong, humorous voice is desired. For readability, it benefits from generous sizing and some breathing room in tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is mischievous and animated, like hand-cut signage or a stylized cartoon title card. Its quirky incisions and asymmetries read as humorous and energetic rather than refined, giving text a playful, slightly chaotic personality with a retro novelty flavor.
The design appears aimed at maximum personality and immediate visual punch, using sculpted notches and irregular edges to create a memorable, one-off display texture. It prioritizes graphic charm and expressive rhythm over strict regularity, making it suited to attention-grabbing, fun-forward typography.
The lowercase echoes the uppercase’s blocky construction, with single-storey forms and simplified silhouettes that favor impact over nuance. Numerals follow the same faceted, notched geometry, helping mixed text feel consistent. In longer lines, the strong shapes create a pronounced black-and-white pattern, so the face is best treated as a graphic element rather than a neutral text tool.
