A quirky sans with hand-cut, angular construction and noticeably irregular outlines. Strokes are mostly monoline but wobble in width and edge quality, with many counters and bowls formed from faceted, polygon-like curves. Terminals are blunt and often slightly skewed, producing a lively baseline and uneven texture in running text. Proportions are generally open and readable, but individual glyphs vary in width and internal shapes, reinforcing an intentionally imperfect, handmade rhythm.
Best suited for display typography where texture and personality are desired: posters, headers, branding marks, packaging, and illustrative titling. It can work for short blurbs or pull quotes, but the irregular rhythm and jagged edges will feel busy in long-form text or small UI sizes.
The font conveys a casual, crafty attitude—more hand-made poster lettering than polished corporate sans. Its faceted curves and roughened edges add a slightly primitive, DIY character that feels energetic and offbeat. Overall it reads friendly and mischievous rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended to mimic improvised, hand-cut lettering with deliberately uneven geometry—prioritizing character and punch over strict typographic uniformity. Its faceted curves and variable widths suggest a playful display face built to stand out and add a handmade voice to titles and branding.
Round letters such as O/C/G and the numerals adopt octagonal, cut-paper silhouettes, while straight-sided forms like E/F/T keep a blunt, carved look. Lowercase retains the same faceted logic, with simple single-storey forms and compact joins that emphasize the hand-drawn construction. The figure set matches the alphabet’s angular language, staying bold and legible at display sizes.
