A heavy, compact display sans with chunky strokes and an intentionally uneven, hand-cut silhouette. Letterforms are built from blunt, block-like shapes with irregular edges, small notches, and occasional angled cuts that create a chiseled rhythm. Counters are tight and sometimes asymmetrical, and curves are simplified into faceted rounds, giving the alphabet a carved, stamped feel. Overall spacing reads fairly tight and the texture is dense, with small variations in width and contour that add personality to repeated forms.
Best suited for short display settings where texture and attitude matter: posters, headlines, packaging, event graphics, album artwork, and title cards. It can also work for playful branding marks and punchy on-screen labels, but the dense shapes and tight counters make it less ideal for long body text at small sizes.
The font feels mischievous and energetic, like cut paper, linocut, or a playful stencil pulled slightly out of register. Its rough geometry and exaggerated weight suggest humor and a touch of kitsch, lending an offbeat, handmade tone rather than a polished corporate voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a handmade, cut-out aesthetic—prioritizing character, texture, and bold presence over neutrality. Its irregular geometry suggests a deliberate attempt to evoke DIY printmaking or collage-like lettering while remaining legible in large-scale display use.
The strongest impression comes from the consistent ‘wobbly’ perimeter treatment—straight segments and corners are slightly deformed, producing a lively, irregular color in text. Numerals match the same chunky construction, keeping a cohesive display tone across letters and figures.
