A chunky, angular sans with a hand-cut, faceted construction. Strokes maintain a mostly even weight but edges are intentionally irregular, with chiseled corners, slight waviness, and occasional notches that create a rough-hewn silhouette. Counters are polygonal and somewhat tight, and curves are typically implied through short straight segments rather than smooth arcs. Widths vary noticeably by glyph, contributing to an uneven, lively rhythm, while the overall color stays dense and strongly graphic.
Best suited to short, bold statements in posters, headlines, packaging, and cover work where a handmade, attention-grabbing tone is desired. It can also work for themed event graphics, craft-oriented branding, or playful editorial callouts, but is less appropriate for long passages where the irregular texture may become visually tiring.
The font conveys a playful, homemade energy—somewhere between cut-paper lettering and casual sign painting. Its jagged geometry adds a mischievous, slightly spooky craft feel that reads as informal and characterful rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut or roughly carved lettering while retaining a clear, sans-based structure. By prioritizing faceted geometry and uneven rhythm over smooth precision, it aims to deliver strong impact and distinctive personality in display typography.
The sample text shows best results at display sizes where the faceting and irregular edges read as intentional texture. Numerals and round letters (like O/Q/0/8/9) emphasize the polygonal, carved look, reinforcing the handmade aesthetic.
