This font features condensed, upright letterforms with heavy, slightly irregular strokes and crisp, wedge-like terminals. Edges are subtly ragged and the contours feel hand-cut or stamped rather than mechanically smooth, giving each glyph a lively, imperfect silhouette. Proportions vary from letter to letter, with tall ascenders/descenders and compact counters that keep the overall texture dense and dark on the page.
It works best at display sizes where the rough contours and wedge terminals remain clear—such as posters, headlines, packaging, and event or seasonal promotions. The condensed width helps fit longer titles into tight spaces while still delivering a bold, graphic presence.
The overall tone is mischievous and theatrical, balancing a rustic handmade feel with a slightly eerie, storybook edge. Its uneven rhythm and sharp terminals create a spirited, attention-grabbing voice that reads as informal and characterful rather than refined.
The design appears intended to evoke a hand-rendered, slightly rough-cut print aesthetic, prioritizing personality and visual impact over neutrality. Its condensed build and textured edges suggest a display face meant to set a mood—playful, spooky, or vintage—quickly and unmistakably.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent narrow stance, but with noticeable per-glyph idiosyncrasies that enhance the drawn look. Numerals follow the same condensed, chunky construction and maintain the font’s punchy, high-impact color.
