A heavy, angular sans with faceted contours that replace smooth curves with short planar cuts. Strokes are thick and fairly even, producing dense silhouettes with tight internal counters and compact apertures. The outlines show intentional irregularity—slight wobble and asymmetric angles—creating a hand-cut, chiseled rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Terminals are blunt and wedge-like, and many rounded letters resolve into polygonal bowls, reinforcing a carved, stencil-adjacent feel without obvious breaks.
Best suited for posters, headlines, and short punchy phrases where its faceted silhouettes can read clearly and provide character. It can work well for packaging, labels, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a handmade, rugged voice, especially when set with generous tracking and ample size.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, with a handmade roughness that feels lively rather than polished. Its sharp facets and uneven edges suggest DIY signage, comic-forward display work, and a touch of retro novelty. The texture reads energetic and slightly rebellious, designed to grab attention quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver an attention-grabbing, hand-hewn display sans that feels carved or cut from paper/wood. By using planar facets and purposeful irregularity, it aims to provide a bold texture and a memorable, quirky personality in large-format typography.
In running text, the dense stroke mass and tight counters make it most comfortable at display sizes, where the faceting becomes a distinctive texture. Numerals follow the same cut-paper geometry, with angular turns and compact interiors that match the letterforms’ rugged consistency.
