A heavy, blocky sans with an intentionally irregular, hand-cut construction. Strokes are built from flat planes and sharp angles, with slightly inconsistent edges and corner cuts that create a chiseled silhouette. Counters tend to be small and polygonal, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a lively, uneven rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same faceted geometry, keeping the overall texture dense and punchy.
Best used for display settings where impact and character are the goal: posters, headlines, packaging, stickers, and expressive branding. It also fits playful editorial callouts and event graphics where a rough-cut, handcrafted feel supports the message.
The tone is energetic and mischievous, with a DIY, cut-paper attitude that reads more expressive than neutral. Its jagged outlines and bouncy spacing give it a comic, offbeat personality suited to loud, attention-grabbing moments rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended to mimic bold lettering cut from paper or carved from blocks, emphasizing faceted shapes and imperfect edges for personality. Its variable widths and tight counters suggest a focus on distinctive silhouettes and visual punch in short text.
The sample text shows a consistently dark color on the page, with the irregular facets and varying widths creating a textured, almost collage-like line. The design favors strong silhouettes and angular counters over precision, which helps it stand out at larger sizes.
