A heavy, block-built sans with angular, cut-paper geometry and intentionally uneven contours. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with sharp corners, notched cuts, and slightly skewed sides that create a lively, off-kilter rhythm. Counters are small and often polygonal, and widths fluctuate noticeably from letter to letter, enhancing a handmade, collage-like texture in words. The overall silhouette favors compact shapes with occasional exaggerated terminals and asymmetric joins that keep lines of text visually animated.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, event flyers, album/cover art, packaging, and punchy branding marks where a rough, handmade tone is desired. It performs especially well in short headlines, callouts, and large-scale signage where its angular silhouettes and uneven rhythm are a feature rather than a distraction.
The font reads as mischievous and energetic, evoking DIY posters, playful horror/comic titling, and craft-forward graphics. Its jagged edges and wobbling alignment suggest humor and spontaneity rather than refinement, giving headlines a loud, attention-grabbing voice.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut or hand-drawn block lettering with a deliberately imperfect, collage-like finish. Its exaggerated weight and irregular construction prioritize personality and impact over neutral text readability.
In the sample text, the irregular spacing and varying letter widths create a strong surface pattern that works best when the type is allowed to be bold and graphic. Small inner spaces and sharp interior angles can visually fill in at reduced sizes, especially in dense words or punctuation-heavy lines.
