A jagged, angular display face with chunky strokes and sharply cut terminals that resemble torn paper or chiseled shapes. Letterforms are intentionally irregular, with inconsistent widths, uneven baselines, and a hand-drawn rhythm that varies from glyph to glyph. Counters are often small and pinched, and many characters show abrupt direction changes and asymmetrical joins, creating a rough, cutout-like silhouette. Numerals and punctuation match the same fractured geometry, favoring bold mass over smooth curves.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event flyers, album covers, and playful packaging. It works well when you want a raw, energetic voice and can give the design room—larger point sizes and generous spacing help preserve legibility.
The overall tone is mischievous and unruly, with a DIY, zine-like energy that reads as loud and attention-seeking. Its spiky silhouettes and uneven cadence suggest humor, mischief, and a slightly menacing edge—more “wacky poster” than refined typography.
The font appears designed to deliver a one-off, expressive voice through rough geometry and deliberate inconsistency, prioritizing personality and visual punch over neutrality. Its cut-paper/chiseled construction and irregular rhythm aim to make even simple words feel animated and unconventional.
In longer text the uneven widths and high silhouette activity create strong texture and motion, but also make word shapes less stable. The design rewards larger sizes where the angular cuts and quirky details remain clear and intentional.
