A faceted, geometric sans with strokes that feel cut into short planar segments rather than drawn as smooth curves. Corners are sharp and numerous, bowls and rounds resolve into polygonal shapes, and joins often show slight asymmetry that keeps the texture lively. Stroke weight is broadly even, with open counters and generous interior space in letters like O, P, and R. Proportions lean broad, and spacing is slightly uneven in a way that reads intentional, contributing to a hand-made rhythm across words and lines.
Best suited to display settings where texture and personality are desirable: posters, titles, event graphics, packaging, and brand marks for playful or offbeat concepts. It can also work for short callouts or captions in comic-style layouts, but its irregular rhythm favors larger sizes over dense, continuous reading.
The overall tone is energetic and mischievous, balancing a cartoonish friendliness with a subtly gritty, scratchy edge. Its angular construction suggests a cut-paper or chiseled-sign feeling, making the voice feel informal and expressive rather than neutral or corporate.
This design appears intended to translate hand-drawn lettering into a repeatable system while preserving the feel of quick, angled construction. By replacing curves with facets and keeping stroke weight steady, it aims to deliver a distinctive, energetic display voice that remains legible in bold, attention-grabbing contexts.
The faceting introduces a consistent visual cadence, but individual glyphs retain small variations in angles and terminals that give the type a custom, drawn look. Numerals match the same polygonal logic, with the 0 and 8 reading as multi-sided loops and the 2, 5, and 7 formed from brisk, angular strokes.
