A compact, upright sans with deliberately irregular contours and subtly faceted curves that feel hand-cut or inked. Strokes maintain a mostly even thickness but show small bulges, nicks, and uneven terminals, creating a lively, imperfect rhythm. Counters are generally open and rounded, while corners often appear softened or slightly angular rather than crisply geometric. Proportions are straightforward and readable, with simple, unadorned letter structures that keep the texture in the outlines rather than in added details.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its textured edges can be appreciated—posters, packaging, album/cover art, event titles, and branding moments that benefit from a handmade voice. It can work for brief text passages at comfortable sizes, but the irregular outlines are most effective when not pushed too small.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a handmade grit that reads as crafty and slightly vintage. Its uneven edges and gentle wobble give it an approachable, human quality—more zine or folk-poster than corporate signage. The texture adds character and warmth without pushing into extreme distress.
The design appears intended to mimic a hand-cut or hand-inked sans: familiar letter skeletons for legibility paired with intentionally imperfect contours to add personality. The goal is a characterful everyday sans that feels crafted rather than mechanical.
Capital forms retain simple sans construction, but the outlines introduce a carved, notched feel that becomes more noticeable at larger sizes. Numerals and lowercase share the same uneven terminal behavior, helping maintain a consistent, drawn-by-hand color across mixed-case text.
