A heavy, geometric sans with compact proportions and rounded bowls, punctuated by distinctive angular notches and wedge-like terminals. Curves are smooth and fairly circular, while many joins and stroke endings break into sharp diagonals, creating a cut-paper or carved feel. Counters are open and generous for the weight, and the overall rhythm is lively, with slightly idiosyncratic shapes (notably in diagonals and curved-to-straight transitions) that keep the texture from feeling purely mechanical.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short bursts of copy where its notched geometry can be appreciated at size. It works especially well for posters, packaging, and logo or wordmark-style applications that benefit from a friendly but unconventional sans voice.
The font reads upbeat and characterful, balancing sturdy, poster-like presence with whimsical cut-in details. Its mix of soft curves and sharp nicks gives it a mid-century display energy—confident, a bit mischievous, and clearly meant to stand out.
The design intention appears to be a bold, approachable display sans that avoids neutrality through consistent carved-in angles and wedge terminals. It aims for strong shelf and screen presence while maintaining a playful, retro-leaning personality.
The numerals and capitals appear designed for impact, with simplified forms and pronounced diagonal cuts that become a recurring motif across the set. In text, the bold color holds together well, but the notches and angled terminals remain visually prominent, giving headings a distinctive, branded signature.
