A heavy, cut-paper sans with faceted, angular contours and intentionally uneven geometry. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with corners that look clipped or chiseled rather than smoothly rounded. Letter widths vary noticeably, and many glyphs have a slight wobble in their verticals and bowls, creating a bouncy baseline rhythm in text. Counters are compact and sometimes skewed, and punctuation and numerals follow the same blocky, irregular construction for a cohesive, all-caps-poster feel even in lowercase.
Best suited for short display copy such as posters, event flyers, headlines, stickers, and bold packaging where strong silhouettes and a handmade texture are desirable. It can also work for playful or spooky themed graphics and title cards, but is less suited to small-size UI or dense body text where its irregular counters and variable widths may reduce clarity.
The overall tone is loud and mischievous, with a DIY, hand-cut energy that reads as playful and slightly menacing. Its jagged, chunky silhouettes evoke comic sound effects, Halloween signage, and irreverent youth-oriented graphics rather than refined editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through chunky weight and distinctive, faceted forms, mimicking hand-cut or carved letter shapes. Its variable widths and irregular rhythm suggest a deliberate move away from neutrality toward expressive display typography that feels energetic and informal.
The texture comes from consistent irregularity: repeated angled notches, asymmetric joins, and uneven interior spaces create strong silhouette character at display sizes. In longer lines, the changing widths and varied shapes produce an animated rhythm that prioritizes personality over uniformity.
