A heavy, compact display face with sculpted, angular carving throughout. Strokes are generally thick with selective thinning and sharp wedge-like cuts that create an incised, almost woodcut rhythm. Counters tend to be rounded and slightly irregular, while terminals often end in pointed or notched shapes rather than smooth endings. The overall texture is lively and uneven in a deliberate way, with distinctive joins, asymmetrical details, and strong black-and-white patterning that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its carved details can be appreciated: posters, headlines, product packaging, and distinctive branding marks. It can also work for cover titles or event materials where a lively, vintage-leaning texture is desired, but it is less ideal for long passages at small sizes.
The tone is bold and mischievous, mixing a retro sign-lettering spirit with a slightly gothic or storybook edge. Its cut-in shapes and energetic silhouettes give it a handmade, theatrical presence that feels attention-grabbing and characterful rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, characterful voice through sculpted forms and deliberate irregularities, evoking hand-cut lettering and vintage display typography. Its consistent use of wedge cuts and shaped counters suggests an emphasis on recognizability and personality in bold settings.
Uppercase forms read as sturdy and emblematic, while the lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic shapes (notably in letters like g, j, q, and y), enhancing the font’s personality. Numerals follow the same carved aesthetic, with strong silhouettes and decorative interior shaping that makes them feel more display-oriented than utilitarian.
