A chunky display face with irregular, hand-cut letterforms and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes are heavy with subtly faceted edges and occasional sharp notches, creating a carved or stamped silhouette rather than smooth geometry. Counters tend to be small and slightly off-center, and the baseline and sidebearings feel intentionally inconsistent, producing a bouncy texture in words. Terminals are blunt and angular, with frequent wedge-like joints and varied stroke endings that reinforce the intentionally rough, homemade construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event flyers, playful packaging, and kids-oriented or comedic branding. It works well where personality and motion matter more than typographic neutrality, and it’s most legible at display sizes rather than extended passages.
The overall tone is goofy and mischievous, like playful signage or a comic title that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Its wobble and jaggedness add energy and a sense of spontaneity, leaning toward lighthearted, slightly chaotic fun rather than refinement.
Designed to deliver an eccentric, handmade look with a bold silhouette and intentionally uneven spacing and contours. The goal appears to be immediate character and visual humor, creating a one-off, illustrative voice for titles and punchy phrases.
The font’s irregularity is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, so it reads as a deliberate style rather than distortion. In longer text the dense black shapes and tight counters can make it feel loud, so it benefits from generous sizing and spacing for clarity.
