A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and mostly uniform stroke thickness. Forms are built from simple circular and rectangular components, with softened outer corners and frequent angular cut-ins that create a slightly stencil-like, notched construction. Counters tend to be open and rounded, while joins and terminals often resolve into flat ends or chamfered points, producing a rhythmic mix of curves and sharp diagonals. The lowercase is compact and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, a square-shouldered n/m, and a short-armed t; figures are large and blocky with distinctive angled cuts on several glyphs.
Best suited to short to medium-length display settings where its chunky geometry and distinctive cut details can be appreciated, such as headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and storefront or event signage. It can also work for playful UI labels or title treatments, especially when a bold, friendly voice is needed.
The overall tone is upbeat and characterful, combining a friendly rounded feel with quirky, engineered cutouts. It reads as retro-leaning and attention-grabbing, suggesting signage and display typography with a slightly game or toy-like charm. The notches and chamfers add energy and personality without becoming chaotic.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, approachable sans with a memorable twist: geometric foundations for clarity, plus consistent notches and chamfers to create a unique, brandable texture. The emphasis appears to be on strong silhouettes, quick recognition, and a lively display presence rather than neutral text anonymity.
The design language is highly consistent: repeated angled incisions appear across rounds (C/G/O/Q), diagonals (K/V/W/X/Y), and several numerals, giving the set a cohesive “carved” signature. Letterfit appears generous, emphasizing bold silhouettes and clear word shapes at larger sizes.
