A heavy, blocky sans with faceted, chiseled outlines and intentionally irregular geometry. Counters are compact and often polygonal, with corners that feel cut rather than drawn, creating a rugged silhouette. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a lively, uneven rhythm. The lowercase is compact with a tall x-height and simplified forms, and the figures echo the same chunky, cut-paper construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, game or event graphics, packaging accents, and sticker-style branding. It can also work for playful signage or social graphics where a bold, handcrafted texture is desirable, rather than continuous reading.
The overall tone is mischievous and energetic, with a DIY, cutout feel that reads more playful than formal. Its angular wobble and compressed counters add a slightly chaotic, cartoonish flavor that suggests humor and spontaneity.
The design appears aimed at delivering a loud, characterful display voice through irregular, carved-looking letterforms. Its construction prioritizes personality and texture—suggesting hand-cut shapes—over strict uniformity and refined typographic polish.
Spacing appears intentionally loose and bouncy in running text, and the faceting creates strong texture at display sizes. Because counters are tight and shapes are busy, readability drops as sizes get smaller or when set in long passages.
