A high-contrast decorative roman with dramatic wedge-like terminals and frequent blade-thin connecting strokes. Many forms alternate between heavy, triangular masses and hairline cut-ins, creating a carved, mask-like feel. Curves are often pinched or off-centered, counters can become teardrop-shaped, and overall rhythm intentionally wobbles between wide and narrow shapes for a lively, irregular texture.
Best suited to display settings where an offbeat voice is an asset: posters, event titles, album or book covers, packaging, and branded headlines needing a quirky signature. It can also work for short pull quotes or chapter openers, but the strong contrast and unusual rhythm suggest using it at larger sizes rather than for continuous text.
This typeface projects an eccentric, theatrical tone—playful but slightly uncanny. Its sharp turns, swollen bowls, and rhythmic quirks evoke a handcrafted, storybook mood with a hint of retro weirdness.
The design appears intended to prioritize personality and visual surprise over neutrality. By combining sharp wedges, exaggerated contrast, and irregular internal shapes, it aims to create distinctive word images that feel custom and expressive in short bursts.
The capitals and lowercase show intentionally idiosyncratic construction, with frequent asymmetry and triangular cut-ins that create a chiselled silhouette. Numerals follow the same sharp, wedge-heavy language, helping maintain a consistent decorative color across mixed text.
