A heavy, block-built sans with monolinear strokes and sharply angular construction. Letterforms are assembled from flat planes with subtly uneven edges and slightly inconsistent geometry, creating a cutout-like texture rather than a rigid modular feel. Counters are squarish and compact (notably in B, D, O, P), and terminals tend to be blunt and rectangular. Proportions and widths vary noticeably across characters, giving the line a lively rhythm; spacing reads fairly open for such dense shapes, helping the black forms stay legible at display sizes.
Best suited to posters, big headlines, titles, and logo wordmarks where its irregular block texture can be appreciated. It also fits packaging, event graphics, and kid-oriented or playful branding, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone is bold and mischievous, with a handmade, DIY energy. Its uneven silhouettes and chunky forms evoke craft-paper lettering, offbeat cartoons, and playful headline graphics rather than neutral UI typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch while feeling handcrafted and imperfect, trading strict uniformity for character and movement. Its simplified, squared counters and blunt terminals support quick recognition at display sizes while reinforcing a playful, cutout aesthetic.
The font maintains a consistent block language across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with intentionally quirky deviations in diagonals and joins (for example in K, R, and Z). Numerals echo the same chunky, squared treatment, and the dense fill-to-counter ratio suggests it will appear especially impactful in short bursts of text.
