A chunky, angular sans with heavy, mostly monoline strokes and sharply cut corners. The letterforms are built from squarish geometry with oblique shears and uneven terminals, giving each glyph a slightly off-kilter silhouette. Counters tend to be small and squared, with occasional triangular notches and cut-ins that emphasize a carved, stencil-like feel without consistent bridges. Spacing and proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, irregular rhythm in text while staying solid and high-impact.
This font works best for short, bold statements where texture and personality are desired: posters, headlines, playful branding, and energetic packaging. It can also serve well for comic-style titling, game UI headers, or event graphics where an intentionally irregular, handmade display tone helps set the mood. For longer passages, its strong texture is likely more effective in larger sizes and with generous spacing.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a DIY, cut-paper energy. Its skewed geometry and jagged joins read as comedic and slightly chaotic, leaning toward zany display styling rather than sober neutrality. The texture it creates in lines of text feels animated and attention-seeking, well-suited to humorous or game-like messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a loud, characterful display sans that feels hand-made and slightly chaotic, using faceted shapes and skewed construction to avoid mechanical regularity. It prioritizes silhouette variety and punchy black shapes to create an expressive, attention-grabbing typographic voice.
Capitals are tall and blocklike, while lowercase maintains a similarly angular construction; round letters (like O) become faceted polygons rather than curves. Numerals follow the same cut, geometric logic, with strong silhouettes that prioritize character over uniformity. The font’s visual voice relies on deliberate inconsistency—subtle shifts in angle, width, and terminal treatment—to produce a distinctive, hand-cut look.
