A heavy, blocky display face with rounded outer corners and distinctive side notches that create a cut-out, chiseled silhouette. Strokes are broadly uniform with compact counters and a bouncy rhythm, giving each letter a sculpted, almost stamped feel. The lowercase is similarly chunky and simplified, with sturdy terminals and minimal delicate detail, while numerals follow the same bold, carved-in motif for a cohesive set.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logos, packaging, and promotional graphics where personality is a priority. It can work well for playful brands, children’s materials, novelty signage, and themed event collateral, especially when set with generous tracking and ample size.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, leaning into a wacky, cartoon-display attitude rather than seriousness. The repeated notches add a handmade, offbeat personality that reads as fun, slightly weird, and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver instant character through exaggerated weight and consistent notch detailing, creating a memorable, decorative voice that stands out in display typography. Its sculpted, cut-out shapes suggest a deliberate move away from clean geometry toward an intentionally odd, crafted look.
Tight internal spaces and heavy mass make the design most legible at larger sizes, where the notches and counter shapes can be clearly seen. The texture it creates in paragraphs is dense and rhythmic, more like a pattern than neutral text.
