A compact, heavy-weight sans with angular, cut-paper geometry and subtly irregular contours. Strokes are mostly monolinear but with slight faceting and uneven edges that create a hand-made feel. Glyphs sit on a gently undulating baseline and show small, inconsistent tilts and widths, producing an intentionally off-kilter rhythm. Counters are tight and often squarish, terminals are blunt, and joins are sharp, giving the overall texture a bold, poster-like density.
Best suited for short display text such as posters, headlines, album/cover titling, packaging, and branding marks where its bold texture and irregular rhythm can be a feature. It will be most effective at medium to large sizes, where the faceted edges and compact counters remain readable and contribute to the intended personality.
The tone is lively and mischievous, with a retro display flavor that suggests handmade signage and playful headline typography. Its wobbly alignment and chiseled shapes read as expressive and attention-grabbing rather than formal or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, high-impact display voice with a deliberately imperfect, hand-cut aesthetic. Its constrained proportions and animated baseline emphasize character and energy over strict typographic regularity, making it ideal for expressive, graphic-forward layouts.
Uppercase forms appear more rigid and slab-like while lowercase introduces more quirky asymmetry, reinforcing a casual, crafted character. Numerals follow the same blocky construction and maintain strong silhouette clarity, especially in larger settings.
