A wide, low-contrast sans with softened corners and frequent notches/cut-ins that create a subtly stenciled, constructed feel. Strokes are largely monolinear, with rounded terminals on many lowercase forms (notably c, e, s) and occasional sharp joins in diagonals (V, W, X). Several glyphs show distinctive internal cuts and wedges—such as the split apex on A, the spurred tail on Q, and carved joins on M/N/W—adding rhythm and texture without becoming fully decorative. Counters are generally open and generous, and spacing reads even in text while preserving a slightly irregular, hand-assembled geometry.
This font works best where its quirky construction can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks. It can also serve as an editorial display face for pull quotes or short passages, where the open forms and steady stroke weight keep it readable while the notches provide character.
The overall tone is upbeat and idiosyncratic, mixing modern sans clarity with a retro, sign-painting or cut-letter character. The repeated notches and soft shaping give it a crafted, approachable voice that feels informal and lively rather than strictly corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a recognizable, contemporary sans voice with a crafted, cut-and-assembled twist. Its wide proportions and distinctive notches suggest a focus on display impact and brand differentiation while maintaining straightforward legibility in larger text settings.
Figures follow the same rounded, cut-in vocabulary, with a notably looped 2 and compact, friendly 6/9. Lowercase has a single-storey a and g, and the dot on i/j appears as a clean circle, reinforcing the geometric softness. The distinctive W construction and the split A apex are strong identifiers that stand out in headlines and branding.
