A rough, blocky display face with irregular, chiseled-looking outlines and an intentionally uneven edge finish. Strokes are generally sturdy and squared off, but contours wobble and break in places, creating a distressed silhouette and inconsistent corner geometry. Counters tend to be angular and boxy, while terminals often appear cut or notched, producing a jittery rhythm across words. Overall spacing and letter widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a handmade, cutout-like construction.
Best used at display sizes where the distressed edges and uneven rhythm can read as texture rather than noise. It suits posters, punchy headlines, packaging accents, stickers, and promotional graphics that want a scrappy, humorous presence; it’s less suited to long passages or small UI text where the roughness can reduce clarity.
The font reads mischievous and intentionally messy, with a DIY, zine-like energy. Its irregular edges and rugged shapes give it a cheeky, rebellious tone that feels more playful than aggressive, suited to offbeat or humorous messaging.
Likely designed to mimic hand-cut lettering or a rough print process, prioritizing character and texture over typographic neutrality. The goal appears to be a one-off, attention-grabbing voice with deliberate imperfections and a wobbly, handcrafted feel.
Uppercase forms lean toward squarish proportions with simplified, geometric interiors, while lowercase retains the same roughened treatment and uneven contours, keeping texture consistent across cases. Numerals follow the same distressed construction, with openings and notches that emphasize the font’s noisy surface character.
