A heavy, rounded display face built from chunky, softly squared shapes with wide bowls and minimal counters. Many letters feature distinctive horizontal and vertical “slices” that read like stencil bridges or cutouts, creating a rhythmic pattern of gaps across the alphabet. Curves are smooth and inflated, while terminals tend to be blunt and blocky; interior spaces are often reduced to thin slits or small ovals. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with intentionally uneven widths and occasional asymmetries that amplify its handmade, experimental feel.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where the cutout details can read clearly: posters, event titles, playful branding, packaging, album/playlist artwork, and punchy social graphics. It works well for short phrases, wordmarks, and expressive headings where texture and personality are more important than continuous readability.
The overall tone is mischievous and lighthearted, with a retro toy-like energy. The repeated cutout motif gives it a slightly mechanical, puzzle-piece character—odd in a deliberate way—making text feel animated and attention-seeking rather than neutral or formal.
The design appears intended to be a distinctive, one-off display voice that turns simple letterforms into graphic shapes. By combining inflated geometry with recurring stencil-like breaks, it prioritizes visual rhythm and novelty over conventional text clarity, aiming to look memorable and characterful in branding and titling.
The cutout features can dominate letter recognition at smaller sizes, especially in dense text, but they create strong visual texture in headlines. Numerals match the same blobby mass and internal slicing, keeping the set consistent for posters and short callouts.
