This typeface is built from angular, faceted strokes that replace most curves with straight segments and crisp corners. Strokes read as monoline but with subtly uneven edges and small variations that mimic hand-drawn marker or brush pressure. The geometry stays mostly upright with a compact footprint, while counters and bowls are slightly squarish, giving letters a chiseled, planar feel. Spacing and widths vary modestly across characters, adding a casual rhythm rather than strict mechanical regularity.
It works best for display settings where its faceted, handmade texture can be appreciated—posters, packaging, album art, book covers, and branding marks. Short headlines and pull quotes benefit from its distinctive rhythm, while longer text can be used when a casual, crafted voice is desired and generous sizing/leading is available.
The overall tone feels handmade and characterful, balancing clarity with a deliberately imperfect, sketch-like finish. Its sharp, planar construction gives it a crafted, slightly rugged personality, while the irregularities keep it friendly and informal rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans structure with an intentionally handmade, faceted construction—suggesting letters drawn with quick, confident strokes but refined into consistent planar shapes. The goal seems to be an approachable display face that stands out through angularity and subtle irregular texture rather than heavy ornament.
Capitals and lowercase share the same angular logic, and round forms like O, C, and G appear as multi-sided shapes rather than true curves. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, keeping a cohesive texture in mixed text. The texture becomes more noticeable in longer passages, where the slight wobble and cornering add a distinctive, artisanal color.
