A chunky, angular sans with a deliberately irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline, with faceted corners, uneven joins, and slight wobble in verticals and diagonals that creates a lively rhythm. Counters tend to be polygonal and sometimes tight, and curves are frequently broken into straight segments, producing a carved, chiseled feel. Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, reinforcing an organic, cut-paper texture rather than strict geometric consistency.
Best suited to display contexts such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and event promotion where a bold, crafty texture is desirable. It can also work for comic-style titling and short bursts of text, but is less appropriate for long-form reading where its irregular counters and variable rhythm may reduce comfort.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a roughcrafted personality that reads as energetic and informal. Its jagged geometry suggests DIY signage, collage, or comic-title expressiveness rather than polished corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to emulate hand-cut or carved lettering, prioritizing character and visual punch over strict uniformity. Its faceted construction and intentionally imperfect outlines aim to add a tactile, homemade feel to modern sans letterforms.
At smaller sizes the dense black shapes and angular apertures can make internal spaces close up, while at display sizes the faceting and uneven stroke endings become a defining visual feature. Numerals and uppercase share the same cutout logic, giving headlines a consistent, handmade voice.
