A faceted, angular sans with polygonal construction in place of smooth curves. Strokes are mostly monolinear with abrupt direction changes, producing sharp corners, clipped terminals, and occasional spur-like protrusions that read as carved or cut. Counters tend toward octagonal shapes (notably in O/0 and rounded letters), and spacing feels lively with slightly uneven sidebearings that create an intentionally irregular rhythm in text. The lowercase is compact and sturdy, with simplified forms and a single-storey a; the numerals follow the same chiseled logic with bold, blocky silhouettes.
Best suited to display settings where texture and character matter—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and short callouts. It can work for brief paragraphs at comfortable sizes, but the deliberately irregular rhythm and sharp joins are most effective when given room to breathe.
The overall tone is rugged and energetic, mixing a DIY hand-cut feel with a graphic, poster-like punch. Its angular facets give it a slightly mischievous, comic edge while still staying straightforward enough to read in short passages.
The design appears intended to translate a hand-cut or chiseled aesthetic into a clean, repeatable typographic system. By replacing curves with planar facets and keeping strokes sturdy and simple, it aims for bold impact and a distinctive, crafted voice without relying on ornamental flourishes.
The faceting is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving the design a cohesive “carved” texture. Round letters maintain readable apertures and counters despite the hard geometry, and the dot on i/j appears as a small, solid lozenge that reinforces the cut-paper/chisel motif.
