A chunky, angular display face built from faceted strokes and sharp corners, with a cut-paper silhouette and frequent notches and wedges in the counters. The letterforms lean on straight segments rather than curves, producing a chiseled, polygonal rhythm and an intentionally uneven edge quality. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, while overall stroke thickness stays consistently heavy, keeping the texture bold and emphatic in blocks of text.
Best used at display sizes where the jagged facets and carved counters can be appreciated—posters, event headlines, packaging callouts, and short, punchy phrases. It can work for playful branding accents, but its irregular rhythm makes it less suited to long-form reading.
The font projects a mischievous, offbeat energy—more handmade and anarchic than polished. Its jittery geometry and exaggerated shapes read as humorous and attention-seeking, with a slightly edgy, cartoon-poster attitude.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut, improvised lettering with a bold, geometric bite—prioritizing personality and impact over neutrality or typographic refinement.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same rough geometric construction, helping the set feel cohesive despite the deliberate irregularities. Numerals and punctuation match the angular, cutout treatment, reinforcing the novelty display personality across the character set shown.
