This typeface uses an even, monoline stroke with gently rounded corners and frequent chamfers that give curves a faceted, hand-cut feel. Serifs are small and spur-like, often appearing as forked or notched terminals on verticals and at stroke ends, creating a distinctive, decorative finish without heavy contrast. Bowls and counters lean toward geometric forms (notably in O/Q and numerals), while joins and terminals add lively irregularity; the overall rhythm stays consistent, but letter widths vary noticeably. Ascenders and capitals read tall and open, with clear shaping and a slightly softened, engraved outline quality.
Best suited to display sizes where the forked terminals and chamfered curves can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and book or game covers. It can work for short passages or pull quotes when ample size and spacing are available, but its decorative terminals and lively texture make it more at home in titling than dense body text.
The tone is playful and characterful, evoking vintage display lettering, storybook titling, and craft signage. Its forked terminals and chamfered curves add a mildly medieval or folkloric flavor, while the clean monoline construction keeps it approachable rather than formal. The result feels personable, quirky, and ornamental without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to blend readable serif structure with distinctive, spurred terminals and softly faceted geometry, creating a signature look for expressive display typography. It prioritizes personality and memorable silhouettes while maintaining a consistent stroke weight and clear letterforms for practical use in branding and editorial titling.
The uppercase set is especially distinctive due to angular rounding in C/G/S and the polygonal feel of O/Q, while the lowercase keeps a readable, friendly texture with occasional spur accents on stems. Numerals follow the same faceted geometry, with open, rounded forms and decorative terminals that stay consistent with the letters.
