A heavy, angular sans with an intentionally uneven, hand-cut construction. Strokes are chunky with visible contrast created by flattened joins, wedge-like terminals, and occasional pinched counters. The outlines feel slightly distorted and variable from glyph to glyph, producing a lively rhythm and non-uniform texture across words. Counters are generally tight and geometric, with squared-off bowls and notches that emphasize a cut-paper silhouette; numerals follow the same blocky, irregular logic.
Best suited for posters, bold headlines, branding marks, and short statements where a rough-edged, handmade look is desirable. It can also work well on packaging or event promotions that benefit from an energetic, cutout aesthetic, especially when given generous tracking and ample size.
The overall tone is playful and assertive, with a crafty, DIY energy that reads as bold and attention-seeking rather than refined. Its irregularities give it a spirited, off-kilter personality that can feel mischievous and theatrical, lending a punchy, almost comic edge to headlines.
This design appears intended to capture a handcrafted, cut-and-collaged feel in a bold display sans, prioritizing character and impact over strict geometric regularity. The contrast and chiseled terminals suggest an aim to create a striking, tactile texture that reads quickly at large sizes.
The font’s strong silhouette holds up well at display sizes, but the cramped counters and jagged interior cuts can make smaller settings feel busy. The irregular widths and slightly wobbly verticals create a distinctive word shape, while repeated sharp angles and clipped curves keep the texture consistently rugged.
