This typeface uses chunky, faceted letterforms built from straight strokes and clipped corners, producing a distinctly angular silhouette throughout. Curves are largely replaced by chamfers and polygonal arcs, with a slightly uneven baseline and subtle per-glyph skew that creates a lively, hand-cut rhythm. Counters are compact and often polygonal (notably in O, Q, 0, 8), and the overall spacing feels intentionally a bit bouncy rather than strictly mechanical. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic, with sturdy stems and simplified joins that keep the texture dense and graphic.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and bold promotional graphics where its angular texture can be a feature. It can work for playful subheads or callouts, while extended body text may feel busy due to the energetic rhythm and dense, faceted shapes.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, with a DIY, cut-paper energy that reads as friendly rather than severe. Its jagged geometry and irregular cadence evoke retro display lettering and playful signage, giving text a lively, slightly chaotic punch.
The design appears intended as a characterful display sans that mimics hand-cut, chiseled, or stencil-like construction while remaining solid and heavy. Its purpose is to add instant personality and motion through angular cuts, compact counters, and an intentionally irregular flow.
Round forms (C, G, S, 2, 3) are expressed with stepped angles, which amplifies the “cracked” or carved look at larger sizes. Diacritics aren’t shown, but the dot on i/j appears as a small square, reinforcing the geometric motif.
