A clean sans structure is rendered with deliberately faceted, chiseled contours that replace smooth curves with short planar segments. Strokes stay largely consistent in thickness, but edges and terminals are irregular and slightly wobbly, creating a cut-paper or hand-carved feel. Counters are open and simplified, and round letters like O, C, and G read as many-sided forms with softened corners rather than true circles. The overall rhythm is compact and sturdy, with straightforward geometry and occasional asymmetric cuts that keep the texture lively.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and logo/brand accents where its faceted texture can be appreciated. It also works well for playful editorial pull quotes and kid-oriented or craft-forward projects that benefit from a handmade, energetic voice. For longer passages, it’s most effective when used sparingly or at comfortable sizes to preserve clarity.
The faceted outlines and imperfect edges give the font a playful, crafty tone—confident and bold, but intentionally unpolished. It feels retro and kinetic, like lettering made with scissors, a knife, or a marker and then squared off into angular shapes. The texture adds personality and approachability, making text feel informal and energetic rather than corporate.
The design appears intended to take a familiar sans skeleton and inject personality through angular, faceted shaping and intentionally imperfect terminals. By trading smooth curves for planar cuts, it creates a distinctive visual signature that feels hand-made yet coherent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
At display sizes the faceting becomes a defining texture, especially on curves and diagonals; at smaller sizes the irregular terminals may read as roughness. Numerals follow the same chiseled logic, with chunky silhouettes and angular transitions that match the uppercase. Overall spacing appears even and readable, while the outline irregularities provide a consistent, distinctive surface character across the set.
