A condensed, monolinear slab serif with squared terminals and small, blocky serifs that often read like stamped caps at stroke ends. Strokes are generally straight and angular, with occasional kinks, slight waviness, and asymmetries that create an intentionally irregular rhythm. Counters tend toward narrow, boxy or faceted shapes (notably in rounded letters), and joins can feel pinched or sharply notched. The overall texture is crisp and high-contrast in silhouette rather than stroke weight, with tight internal spacing and a tall, narrow footprint.
Best suited to display settings where personality is the goal: posters, headlines, packaging, and book or album covers. It can also work for short signage or titling where its narrow width helps fit long words, but the irregular details and tight counters make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The font conveys a quirky, handmade personality with a slightly spooky or oddball tone—more “found lettering” than polished editorial type. Its angular slabs and jittery detailing give it a playful, eccentric energy that can feel retro, indie, or lightly macabre depending on context.
The design appears intended to merge a slab-serif framework with hand-rendered, slightly distorted geometry—preserving clear letter skeletons while introducing jitter, sharp joints, and squared terminals for character. It aims for a distinctive, memorable voice rather than neutral versatility.
Uppercase forms appear more rigid and architectural, while lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic strokes and uneven curves, reinforcing a DIY feel. Numerals follow the same narrow, angular construction, maintaining consistent color and a deliberately imperfect cadence across lines of text.
