A chunky, heavy-stroked display face with a distinctly hand-drawn build. Forms are simplified and uneven, with faceted curves and chiseled-looking corners that create an angular, cut-paper silhouette. Stroke endings are blunt and slightly irregular, and counters tend to be small and lumpy, giving letters a compact, punchy color. Proportions vary noticeably across the alphabet—some letters are wider or more condensed than neighbors—adding a lively, informal rhythm in text.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, headlines, cover titles, packaging, and playful branding. It also fits comic-style captions and kid-oriented materials where an expressive, hand-crafted look is desired. For longer passages, it will work better with generous size and spacing to preserve legibility.
The font reads as playful and mischievous, with a slightly rough, crafted character that feels energetic rather than polished. Its bold, irregular shapes suggest humor and spontaneity, leaning toward a cartoony, “handmade sign” tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, hand-made impact—favoring personality, texture, and irregular rhythm over typographic refinement. Its faceted curves and blunt terminals aim to create a distinctive, high-contrast silhouette in display settings.
Uppercase and lowercase maintain the same rugged, faceted construction, and the numerals follow suit with thick, asymmetrical shapes. The overall texture is intentionally uneven, which helps it feel expressive but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes.
