A heavy, all-caps-dominant display face built from chunky, faceted shapes with frequent angled cuts and irregular edges. Strokes behave like carved blocks: broad vertical masses, abrupt terminals, and inconsistent interior counters that shift from tight wedges to rounded bite-outs. The baseline and sidebearings feel intentionally unstable, producing a wobbling rhythm in words; widths vary notably from glyph to glyph, and curves are often simplified into polygonal arcs. Numerals match the same cut-paper silhouette, with compact bowls and sharp notches that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, album or show graphics, playful packaging, and merchandise where an expressive, cutout look is an asset. It works especially well when set large with generous line spacing, letting the angular silhouettes and uneven rhythm read as intentional texture.
The overall tone is goofy and unruly, like hand-cut letters for a comic sign or a playful poster. Its uneven texture reads as energetic and slightly chaotic, suggesting humor, mischief, and a DIY attitude rather than refinement or neutrality.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut or roughly carved lettering—bold, graphic shapes with purposely irregular outlines that create a wacky, characterful word image. It prioritizes personality and visual punch over smooth repetition, aiming for an experimental display voice.
In continuous text the dense silhouettes and shifting widths create strong texture and attention-grabbing patterning, but the irregular spacing and busy counters can reduce legibility at smaller sizes. The font’s personality comes largely from its consistent use of hard facets, asymmetrical nicks, and a deliberately off-kilter word shape.
