A chunky, angular sans with faceted, cut-paper geometry and strongly irregular contours. Strokes are heavy and mostly monolinear, with sharp corners, off-kilter joins, and wedge-like terminals that create a lively, slightly jittery rhythm. Counters and apertures tend to be tight and asymmetrical (notably in B, P, R and e), and curves are often approximated with straight segments, giving a carved, polygonal feel. Spacing reads compact and energetic, with small variations in sidebearings that enhance the hand-made texture while keeping overall letterforms sturdy and legible at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where its bold, irregular texture can be appreciated: posters, headlines, product packaging, event graphics, and logo wordmarks. It can also work well for playful UI/game titles or short bursts of copy where personality and immediacy matter more than sustained readability at small sizes.
The font conveys a bold, mischievous tone—part comic, part DIY poster—suggesting cutout lettering, handmade signage, or stylized game and animation typography. Its uneven edges and chiseled shapes add attitude and humor, making text feel animated and attention-seeking rather than formal or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through exaggerated weight, angular simplification, and deliberate irregularity, evoking hand-cut or roughly carved lettering. Its consistent faceting and tight counters prioritize character and memorability, aiming for a distinctive, energetic voice in display typography.
The numerals match the same faceted construction, with distinctive, slightly lopsided shapes and compact interior spaces (e.g., 0 and 8). Lowercase forms echo the uppercase’s blocky language, with simplified details and assertive silhouettes that favor impact over refinement in longer passages.
