A heavy, chunky sans with irregular, hand-cut geometry and frequent angled cuts that create faceted corners and uneven stroke endings. Forms are compact and simplified, with polygonal curves (notably in round letters and numerals) and small, angular counters that read like punched holes. Stroke terminals are blunt and inconsistently slanted, giving the set a lively, slightly wobbly rhythm while remaining upright and highly legible at display sizes. Width varies noticeably across letters, reinforcing an organic, cut-paper construction rather than a rigid grid.
Best used for posters, headlines, logos, and packaging where a bold, handmade voice is desired. It performs well in short bursts—titles, badges, labels, and promotional graphics—where its irregular cuts can be appreciated without crowding.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, evoking handmade signage, comic lettering, and craft-driven graphics. Its rough-hewn edges and exaggerated weight lend a friendly, slightly chaotic energy suited to lighthearted or quirky messaging.
The design appears intended to mimic a hand-cut or chiseled construction, prioritizing character and impact over smooth precision. It aims to deliver a strong display presence with a quirky, craft-like texture that feels informal and expressive.
The font’s distinctive identity comes from its consistent use of faceting and notched shapes—especially visible in round glyphs like O/Q/0 and in the angled joins of diagonals. Numerals share the same chunky, carved look, helping the set feel cohesive for short, attention-grabbing lines.
