A condensed, hand-drawn sans with wobbly outlines and softly irregular curves that keep each glyph feeling human and slightly offbeat. Strokes are built from a solid outer contour with many small internal knockouts, creating a perforated, speckled “hollowed” texture throughout counters and stems. Terminals are blunt and uneven, join geometry varies subtly from letter to letter, and spacing feels lively rather than mechanically uniform. Numerals and capitals maintain the same cutout treatment, giving the set a consistent, patterned color on the page.
Best suited to display settings where the cutout texture can be appreciated—posters, book covers, packaging, labels, and playful branding. It can add character to short headlines, pull quotes, and event graphics, especially in contexts that benefit from a handmade or novelty look. For longer text, it performs best at generous sizes and with comfortable tracking to keep the interior perforations legible.
The overall tone is playful and crafty, with a DIY, stamped-on-paper character. Its porous, dotted interiors add a whimsical, slightly vintage novelty feel that reads as decorative and informal. The texture introduces a friendly roughness that suggests handmade signage and arts-and-crafts ephemera.
The design appears intended to combine a narrow, readable skeleton with a distinctive hollowed, perforated texture that turns the letterforms into a graphic motif. Rather than aiming for neutrality, it prioritizes personality and surface detail, giving simple shapes an illustrative, stamped or stippled finish.
The internal knockouts are dense enough that the font’s perceived weight depends strongly on size and reproduction method; at smaller sizes the texture may visually fill in, while at larger sizes it becomes a defining graphic pattern. The narrow proportions help it pack headline copy tightly, but the uneven contours and texture keep it from feeling rigid or purely utilitarian.
