A heavy, blocky sans with irregular, hand-cut contours and soft, faceted corners. Strokes are broadly uniform with little contrast, but edges wobble and taper subtly, creating a lively, uneven silhouette. Counters are small and sometimes pinched (notably in rounded letters), and terminals often end in blunt, slightly angled cuts. Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, giving lines a rhythmic, bouncing texture while staying upright and compact in overall stance.
Best suited for display use such as posters, headlines, packaging, and short-form branding where texture and personality are desirable. It also fits kids-oriented media, comics, and craft-themed graphics. In longer passages, its dense weight and irregular rhythm are more effective at larger sizes where counters and shapes stay clear.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a homemade, cut-paper energy that reads as friendly rather than strict. Its chunky forms and irregular edges evoke cartoon titling and casual display lettering, suited to lighthearted, informal messaging.
The design appears intended to mimic bold, hand-cut lettering with a deliberately imperfect edge, prioritizing character and visual impact over strict geometric regularity. Its consistent chunkiness and lively width variation suggest a font built for expressive titling and attention-grabbing phrases.
Round characters (O, Q, 0) lean toward squarish, faceted bowls, while diagonals (V, W, X) appear broad and wedge-like. The lowercase set keeps the same chunky construction, and the numerals share the same hand-hewn, uneven finish, helping the design feel consistent across text and headlines.
