A compact, chunky sans with an intentionally irregular, hand-cut feel. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtle waviness and uneven edge tension that makes counters and joins feel slightly chiseled rather than geometric. Forms lean on simplified, angular construction—curves are often faceted, corners are softened inconsistently, and terminals appear blunt or minimally tapered. Proportions are tight and condensed overall, with small, rounded counters and a lively, uneven rhythm across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, event titles, packaging, and characterful branding where a handmade tone is desired. It works especially well for short headlines, badges, and punchy callouts; longer paragraphs may feel heavy due to the tight counters and dense color.
The font reads as mischievous and informal, like cut-paper lettering or a cartoon title treatment. Its uneven details add warmth and personality, giving it a retro display energy that feels friendly rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-rendered or cut-out lettering while retaining the simplicity of a sans structure. It prioritizes personality and texture over strict consistency, aiming for a bold, approachable display voice.
In text, the dense weight and compact apertures create a dark, energetic texture, with small idiosyncrasies becoming more noticeable at larger sizes. The numerals and capitals match the same faceted, hand-shaped logic, supporting expressive headlines and short bursts of copy.
