This font is a heavy, upright display face with chunky silhouettes and rounded outer contours. Strokes are solid and compact, but the forms are characterized by small, irregular interior notches and hollowed highlights that read like gouges or ink traps, creating a cut-out texture throughout. Curves are soft and bulbous, terminals tend to be blunt, and the overall drawing feels intentionally uneven, with subtle glyph-to-glyph variation that enhances the hand-carved effect. Counters are generally open and generous for the weight, and the tall x-height keeps lowercase forms prominent in text.
Best suited for display sizes where the interior cutouts can be appreciated: headlines, posters, packaging, short slogans, and logo marks. It can also work for playful editorial callouts or event branding where a textured, handcrafted feel is desired, but the strong personality makes it less appropriate for long body copy.
The irregular cutouts and chunky proportions give the type a playful, slightly spooky tone—like painted signage, carved lettering, or a comic-horror title treatment. It feels energetic and informal, with a crafted, tactile character that reads as more expressive than precise.
The design appears intended to combine a sturdy, highly legible block structure with decorative internal carving, delivering a bold wordshape that still feels hand-made. The repeated hollowed details function as a signature motif, suggesting a font meant for attention-grabbing, characterful typography rather than neutral text setting.
The internal knockouts appear consistently near stroke tops and inner joins, producing a distinctive “highlighted” texture that stays visible even in larger word shapes. The numeral set matches the same bold, rounded construction and retains the cutout detailing, keeping the overall voice consistent across letters and figures.
