A decorative slab-serif design with sturdy, bracketed serifs and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms are built from solid strokes that are punctured by small, irregular oval cutouts, creating an inline, hollowed texture throughout stems and bowls. Curves are generous and slightly bulbous, with a mildly hand-drawn feel in the contours and spacing. Overall proportions stay readable, but the interior perforations add lively surface detail and a distinctive rhythm across text.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, labels, packaging, and storefront-style signage where the perforated detailing is clearly visible. It can work for short blurbs or pull quotes, but extended text will feel busy unless set large with generous leading.
The dotted cutouts and robust slabs give the face a festive, throwback tone—suggesting show posters, novelty signage, and playful display typography. It reads as friendly and attention-grabbing, with a whimsical, slightly theatrical character rather than a strictly formal one.
The design appears intended to merge a classic slab-serif silhouette with an ornamental knockout pattern, adding a distinctive handcrafted texture while keeping familiar letter shapes for legibility. The goal is likely a high-impact display face that communicates novelty and character through its perforated interior detailing.
The internal perforations vary in size and placement, producing a mottled, stamped look that becomes more prominent at larger sizes. In paragraphs the texture can visually thicken the color of the line, so the font performs best where the decorative pattern can breathe.
