A chunky, faceted sans with planar, chiseled edges in place of smooth curves. Strokes maintain a consistently heavy presence with low internal modulation, while corners and joins shift subtly from glyph to glyph, giving a hand-cut irregularity. Counters are small-to-medium and often polygonal, and terminals tend to end in blunt wedges rather than clean horizontals or rounds. Overall proportions feel compact with slightly uneven sidebearings, creating a lively, varied rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where personality and impact matter—headlines, posters, packaging, and short bursts of copy. It can work well for themed event materials or entertainment-oriented branding where a handmade, edgy texture is desirable, while longer paragraphs may feel visually busy.
The letterforms read as mischievous and handmade, with a rough-hewn, cut-paper or carved-stencil attitude. Its angular facets and uneven details add a playful edge that feels craft-forward and slightly rebellious rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to translate a hand-carved, faceted aesthetic into a consistent alphabet, emphasizing bold silhouettes, angular planes, and an intentionally imperfect finish for strong display presence.
In text, the irregular facets create strong texture and visual noise, which can be an asset for expressive headlines but may reduce comfort at smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same chiseled logic, with distinctive, blocky silhouettes that prioritize character over strict uniformity.
