A chunky, angular sans with deliberately irregular contours and faceted edges that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with abrupt corners, notched joins, and slightly unstable baselines that create a jittery rhythm. Counters are often small and asymmetrical, and many forms lean toward polygonal construction (e.g., squared bowls, clipped diagonals), producing a compact, high-impact texture. Spacing appears uneven by design, reinforcing the rough, cut-paper silhouette across both letters and numerals.
Best suited to short display settings where impact and personality matter—posters, headlines, stickers, album art, and playful branding. It can work well on packaging or event materials that benefit from a handcrafted, slightly chaotic voice. For longer passages, it’s most effective when used sparingly (pull quotes or short blurbs) due to its busy texture and irregular spacing.
The overall tone is mischievous and energetic, with a DIY, zine-like attitude. Its jagged geometry reads as quirky and slightly menacing in a comic or Halloween-adjacent way, while still staying friendly due to the simplified, blocky letterforms. The font projects motion and noise rather than polish, making it feel expressive and informal.
The design appears intended to emulate hand-cut lettering with bold, faceted shapes and imperfect consistency, prioritizing character over neutrality. Its angular simplification and notched geometry suggest a goal of creating an eye-catching, expressive sans for themed and informal applications.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent rugged construction, with simplified details (single-storey forms where applicable) and distinctive, sometimes pinched terminals. Numerals match the same carved, angular logic and hold up visually as display figures. In text settings, the strong silhouettes and uneven rhythm create a lively, poster-like color but can look busy at smaller sizes.
