A heavy, block-built sans with chiseled, irregular contours and a distinctly hand-cut feel. Strokes remain low-contrast and mostly monolinear, but edges wobble and corners shift between squared and slightly notched, giving each glyph a sculpted silhouette. Counters are small and often polygonal, with rectangular apertures and narrowed interior space in letters like O, P, and e. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing an uneven rhythm and a deliberately imperfect texture in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact display settings where texture and character are desirable, such as posters, product packaging, event graphics, and brand marks. It can also work well for playful editorial callouts and titles, especially at larger sizes where the irregular edge quality becomes a feature rather than a distraction.
The overall tone is energetic and mischievous, like cut-paper lettering or a comic display style with a rugged edge. Its chunky forms read as friendly and approachable while still feeling punchy and attention-grabbing. The irregularity adds personality and a handmade vibe rather than a polished, corporate voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handmade display voice—prioritizing personality, texture, and immediate visual impact over neutral uniformity. Its faceted shapes and uneven rhythm suggest a deliberately crafted, cutout-like aesthetic meant to stand out in branding and headline contexts.
Round letters tend to be rendered as faceted shapes rather than true curves, and terminals often end in flat, blunt cuts. The lowercase shows simplified, sturdy constructions (single-storey forms where applicable) and maintains the same carved-in look as the caps. Numerals match the letterforms with blocky geometry and compact counters, supporting cohesive headline settings.
