A chunky, display-oriented sans with thick, largely even strokes and a distinctive cut-paper or chiseled construction. Bowls and rounds are softened into broad curves, but many terminals are finished with sharp triangular notches, points, and wedge cuts that create a faceted silhouette. Counters are generous and open, while diagonals and joins often form crisp, geometric angles, producing an energetic rhythm across words. Uppercase forms read compact and sturdy; lowercase keeps similar weight and texture, with pointed details appearing on ascenders/descenders and at key joins, and numerals echo the same wedge-cut styling.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and title treatments where its carved details and chunky curves can be appreciated. It also works well for branding and packaging that want a whimsical, old-world or carnival-like accent, and for short bursts of text such as signage, labels, and event graphics.
The overall tone feels playful and theatrical, blending a storybook friendliness with a faintly gothic or medieval sign-painting flavor. The repeated wedge cuts add mischief and motion, giving text a festive, handcrafted character rather than a neutral, corporate voice.
The design appears intended to provide a bold, attention-grabbing display voice that feels handcrafted and characterful, using consistent wedge cuts and faceted terminals to differentiate it from conventional rounded grotesques.
The cut-in terminals and diamond-like points become more prominent at larger sizes, where the faceted detailing is clearly legible and contributes strongly to the texture. In dense settings, the distinctive notches can create a busy pattern, making careful spacing and generous line height helpful for comfortable reading.
