A monoline, hand-drawn display face with squared, boxy construction softened by rounded corners and visibly wobbly stroke edges. Curves are often treated as softened rectangles, producing open, geometric counters that feel sketched rather than engineered. Spacing and letter widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with slightly uneven alignment and a casual rhythm that emphasizes the drawn texture over precision. Terminals are blunt and squared-off, and many joins show small kinks and waviness that reinforce an imperfect, marker-like finish.
Best suited for short display text where personality is the priority: posters, headings, packaging accents, zines, and playful branding. It can also work well in game UI, titles, or themed graphics where a handmade, quirky geometric look helps set an informal mood. For long body copy, the uneven rhythm and variable widths may be fatiguing, so it’s strongest in brief lines and larger sizes.
The font gives off a playful, offbeat tone—more doodled than designed—suggesting humor, experimentation, and a lightly retro digital/arcade sensibility. Its irregularities feel intentional and friendly, lending a quirky voice that reads as informal and characterful rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic a quick, hand-drawn take on geometric lettering—combining squared construction with imperfect stroke edges to create a one-off, expressive display voice. Its goal seems to be immediacy and charm: readable forms with deliberate irregularity for a distinctive, playful impact.
Uppercase forms lean toward angular, squarish silhouettes, while lowercase mixes rounded-rect shapes with simplified strokes, keeping a consistent ‘scribbled geometry’ across the set. Numerals follow the same boxy logic and read clearly at display sizes, where the textured outlines become a key part of the personality.
