A quirky, irregular display face with fluctuating stroke thickness and a visibly handmade, slightly shaky outline. Many letterforms mix solid, filled masses with narrow, scratched-looking strokes, creating abrupt transitions and a deliberately inconsistent texture. Counters frequently collapse into blobs or fully fill in (notably in round letters), while other glyphs retain thin internal gaps, producing a high-contrast, cut-and-paste rhythm across the set. Geometry alternates between softened, rounded bowls and angular terminals, with uneven joins and occasional notch-like cutouts that feel inked or roughly carved rather than mechanically drawn.
Best used at display sizes where the irregular detailing and filled counters can be appreciated without sacrificing legibility. It works well for posters, flyers, album artwork, expressive packaging, and short headlines or pull quotes where a handmade, novelty voice is desired. For longer text, the strong dark blobs and inconsistent texture can become visually busy, so simpler layouts and generous spacing tend to help.
The overall tone is mischievous and offbeat—more zine and DIY than polished or corporate. Its blotty fills and jagged linework give it a slightly gritty, humorous edge that reads as intentionally imperfect and attention-seeking. The style suggests playful disruption, with a retro-novelty energy suited to expressive, non-literal messaging.
This design appears intended to deliver a deliberately imperfect, handcrafted look by combining ink-heavy fills with scratchy, uneven outlines. The collapsing of interior spaces and the variable treatment from glyph to glyph prioritize personality and texture over uniformity, aiming for a distinctive, attention-grabbing display presence.
In text settings the alternating solid shapes and thin, scratchy strokes create strong patterning and dark spots, so the color of a line can vary noticeably from word to word depending on which letters appear. Rounded glyphs can become very dense, while straight-stem letters stay comparatively airy, emphasizing the font’s intentionally uneven rhythm.
