This typeface uses monoline strokes with crisp, faceted construction, replacing smooth curves with short planar segments. Corners are sharp and slightly uneven, giving the outlines a hand-cut feel while keeping overall letterforms legible. Proportions are compact with straightforward geometry and minimal ornament, and the rhythm shows subtle irregularities in terminals and joins that keep the texture lively. Figures and capitals follow the same angular logic, with polygonal bowls and diagonals that read cleanly at display sizes.
It works best in posters, titles, and headline settings where the faceted detailing can be appreciated. The font also suits logos, packaging, and short branding phrases that benefit from a handmade, slightly roughened edge without sacrificing clarity.
The overall tone is quirky and handmade, with an edgy, cut-paper or chiseled marker personality. Its faceted shapes suggest a retro DIY sensibility—playful rather than formal—adding character without drifting into heavy stylization.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans structure while injecting personality through faceted “broken-curve” geometry. It aims for an approachable display voice that feels crafted and distinctive, suitable for modern-retro and DIY-themed visual identities.
The sample text shows a distinctly “shattered curve” effect in round letters like C, O, and S, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) stay relatively simple, creating a pleasing contrast in texture. Numerals echo the same angular treatment, especially 0, 2, 3, and 8, which read as polygonal forms.
