A hand-drawn display face with chunky, uneven strokes and subtly faceted contours that feel carved or cut with a rough tool. Letterforms are tall and compact, with narrow bowls and tight interior counters; curves often resolve into angled shoulders and blunt terminals rather than smooth arcs. Stroke edges wobble slightly and thickness varies organically, giving an inked, imperfect texture. Spacing is lively and inconsistent in a controlled way, reinforcing the handmade rhythm while keeping words readable at larger sizes.
Best suited for posters, titles, and short bursts of text where character is more important than neutrality. It works well for packaging, event promos, game or zine graphics, and book covers that want a handmade, slightly spooky or rustic voice. For longer passages, it’s most effective when used sparingly as a display accent rather than body text.
The overall tone is mischievous and slightly eerie—like a playful horror title or a rustic fantasy sign. Its jagged curves and chiseled terminals create a dramatic, storybook energy that reads as informal, expressive, and attention-seeking rather than polished or corporate.
Likely intended to deliver an expressive, hand-crafted display look with a carved/inked texture and compact proportions, emphasizing personality and atmosphere. The design prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and energetic rhythm to stand out in titles and thematic branding.
Capitals carry the strongest personality, with distinctive, narrow silhouettes and pinched joins that add a hint of gothic flavor without becoming fully blackletter. Numerals match the same cut-out feel, with simplified shapes and bold presence suited to headlines. The texture and irregularity become more apparent as size increases, where the hand-rendered edges contribute to its character.
