A chunky, irregular sans with hand-cut, chiseled-looking contours and noticeably uneven stroke endings. Letterforms are built from simple, heavy shapes but with asymmetric curves and angled facets that create a wobbly, animated silhouette. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with slightly inconsistent widths and a lively, bouncy baseline rhythm; counters are open and simplified for strong black-and-white impact. Numerals match the same rough-hewn geometry, with angled terminals and softened corners that keep the set visually cohesive.
Well suited to posters, headlines, and short bursts of copy where a playful, handcrafted voice is desirable. It can work effectively for children’s materials, casual branding, packaging, event promotions, and game or hobby-themed interfaces where character and impact matter more than typographic neutrality.
The font conveys a mischievous, upbeat tone—more craft-paper and marker-board than corporate. Its jittery, cutout texture suggests humor and informality, making text feel energetic and approachable rather than precise or technical.
The design appears intended to emulate a hand-cut or hand-drawn sans with bold presence and a deliberately imperfect rhythm. Its primary goal is expressive display typography—prioritizing personality, punch, and a handcrafted feel over smooth, geometric regularity.
In running text, the irregular contours and variable glyph widths create a deliberately handmade color that reads best at display sizes. The distinctive, faceted terminals and slightly skewed curves are consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving a unified “cut from shapes” personality.
