A compact, heavy sans with rounded outer contours and frequent wedge-like notches that carve into strokes, creating a chiseled, cutout feel. Counters are generally small and often circular, with the “O/0” and “o” reading as dense rings and the “e” showing a tight aperture. Stroke endings vary between blunt terminals and tapered, slightly pinched joins, giving the alphabet an irregular, handmade rhythm while remaining consistently upright. Overall spacing and letterforms are tight and sturdy, favoring strong silhouette recognition over delicate detail.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titles, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where its silhouette and cutout texture can carry the design. It can work for brief bursts of copy in playful contexts, but the tight counters and busy internal cuts make it more effective at larger sizes than in extended reading.
The font conveys a playful, retro poster energy, mixing bold friendliness with a slightly mischievous, comic tone. Its cut-in shapes and bouncy proportions feel theatrical and attention-seeking, suggesting fun, novelty, and lighthearted impact rather than formal neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a novelty, cut-carved aesthetic—combining rounded, approachable shapes with deliberate internal notches to add character and movement. It prioritizes distinctive display texture and strong black shapes for attention-grabbing typography.
The distinctive internal notches and small counters become more pronounced in longer text, creating a textured, almost stamped pattern across a line. Numerals share the same chunky construction, with especially graphic forms for “2,” “3,” and “7,” reinforcing a display-first personality.
