A heavy, all-solid display face with irregular, hand-cut geometry and uneven stroke edges. Forms alternate between blocky slabs and bulbous curves, with frequent wedge-like notches and slightly tilted terminals that create a jittery rhythm. Counters are largely collapsed, so readability relies on silhouettes rather than interior detail; the result is dense, high-impact letterforms with a lively, inconsistent width and a tall lowercase presence.
Best used at display sizes for posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and short bursts of text where impact matters more than fine detail. It also fits children’s materials, comic-style graphics, event promos, and playful seasonal uses where an irregular, handcrafted look helps set the mood.
The overall tone is humorous and mischievous, with a cartoony, cut-paper feel that reads as informal and energetic. Its exaggerated shapes and solid fill suggest a loud, attention-grabbing voice suited to lighthearted or spooky-fun themes rather than seriousness.
Designed to deliver bold, silhouette-driven characters with a deliberately imperfect, handmade personality. The collapsed interiors and exaggerated contours prioritize graphic punch and a quirky texture across lines of copy.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, intentionally uneven construction, giving text a bouncing baseline impression even when set straight. Numerals match the same chunky, asymmetrical style, keeping a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
