A chunky, irregular sans with faceted curves and slightly wobbly strokes that feel cut or chipped rather than smoothly drawn. Shapes are simplified and geometric, with many corners and flattened terminals; bowls and rounds (O, C, G, 0) read as polygonal. Spacing and glyph widths vary noticeably, adding a lively, uneven rhythm, while counters tend to be small and compact in letters like B, P, and R. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with short, firm descenders and a single-storey a; numerals are similarly chunky and angular.
Best suited to display use such as posters, titles, packaging, event flyers, and playful branding where a handmade, quirky texture is desired. It can also work well for kids-oriented materials and casual signage, especially when set with generous tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is playful and handmade, with a casual, slightly mischievous energy. Its roughened geometry suggests a DIY, cut-paper or woodcut sensibility, giving text a friendly, informal voice rather than a polished corporate feel.
The font appears designed to capture a handcrafted, cut-out look in a clean sans framework, prioritizing character and texture over strict uniformity. Its angular rounding and uneven rhythm aim to make text feel approachable, energetic, and distinctly non-mechanical.
The design relies on consistent chiseled edges across both uppercase and lowercase, which helps it remain cohesive despite the intentional irregularities. In longer lines, the variable widths and jagged contours create a bouncy texture that reads best at larger sizes.
