This sans has an intentionally rough, hand-cut construction with faceted curves and slightly choppy stroke edges, creating an organic, uneven outline rather than smooth geometry. Strokes are fairly even in thickness, with modest modulation coming mostly from the irregular drawing rather than true contrast. Rounds like O/C/G/Q read as many-sided forms, while straight strokes (E, F, H, L) stay sturdy and simple, producing a lively rhythm across words. Spacing appears open and the overall proportions feel generous, supporting clear word shapes despite the rugged contouring.
Well-suited to display use such as headlines, posters, book covers, and packaging where a handmade or crafty texture is desirable. It can also work for short-to-medium passages when a casual, friendly tone is needed, though the rugged outlines will remain a prominent stylistic feature.
The tone is informal and approachable, with a DIY, hand-rendered character that feels crafty and a bit mischievous. Its roughened geometry gives a tactile, analog feel—more playful than polished—suggesting a human touch and a relaxed voice.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-drawn or hand-cut lettering while retaining the clarity of a simple sans structure. Its goal seems to be adding personality and tactile texture without sacrificing basic legibility, making it a characterful option for expressive branding and display typography.
In running text the irregular edges create a consistent texture that’s most noticeable on bowls and terminals, while counters remain relatively open. The caps are bold and attention-getting, and the numerals share the same faceted, cutout-like construction, helping headings and short bursts of copy keep a unified, handmade look.
