A jagged, angular display face with irregular, hand-cut contours and a slightly uneven baseline rhythm. Strokes look chiseled and faceted, with sharp terminals, occasional wedge-like joins, and subtly inconsistent widths that create a lively, cut-paper silhouette. Counters are often narrow and polygonal (notably in O/Q/8), while several letters lean on simplified, geometric constructions that keep the texture bold and graphic. Overall spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a deliberately rough, handcrafted consistency rather than mechanical precision.
Best suited to short display text such as posters, headlines, book covers, game titles, and themed packaging where an intentionally irregular, handmade voice is desirable. It can also work for labels and signage-style graphics, but should be used sparingly for longer passages due to its busy texture.
The tone is playful and offbeat, with a mischievous, storybook energy that can read as spooky-fun or whimsical depending on color and context. Its jagged forms evoke hand-made signage and cut-out lettering, giving it a crafty, slightly chaotic personality.
The design appears intended to mimic cut, carved, or improvised lettering while maintaining enough structure to remain legible across a full A–Z and numeral set. Its controlled inconsistency suggests a goal of creating personality and motion in the text line rather than typographic neutrality.
Lowercase shows strong idiosyncrasies (single-storey forms and sharp, hooky ascenders/descenders), and the numerals follow the same faceted logic with distinctive, angular silhouettes. The look is most convincing at display sizes, where the intentional irregularities and sharp corners remain clear rather than noisy.
