A chunky, hand-rendered sans with irregular contours and subtly uneven stroke edges that mimic cut paper or a dry brush. Forms are generally round and open, but with purposeful wobble in curves and corners, giving each character a slightly unique silhouette. Counters stay fairly generous and clear, while joins and terminals often end in blunt, angled cuts rather than smooth finishes. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across the set, creating a lively, handmade rhythm in words and lines.
This font works best at display sizes where its irregular edges and handmade texture can be appreciated—posters, bold headlines, event flyers, packaging, and brand marks seeking a crafted feel. It can also suit short bursts of text (labels, pull quotes, navigation) when a casual, tactile voice is desired.
The overall tone is crafty and human, with a friendly roughness that feels informal and approachable rather than polished. It suggests DIY signage, zines, or hand-printed ephemera—confident and energetic, with a touch of mischievous character.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of hand-made lettering in a clean, sans-based structure—prioritizing personality and texture while keeping shapes simple and readable. It aims for an expressive, analog look that feels printed or cut by hand rather than digitally perfect.
Uppercase shapes read as sturdy and poster-like, while lowercase maintains the same textured personality and simplified construction. Numerals follow the same cut-and-ink aesthetic, with bold, easily recognized silhouettes that match the letterforms.
