A geometric, monoline sans with distinctly faceted outlines, as if each stroke were cut from straight segments rather than drawn as smooth curves. Corners are often clipped and counters tend toward polygonal shapes (notably in O/0 and rounded lowercase), giving the design a chiseled, slightly rough-hewn texture. Stroke weight stays fairly even, while widths and sidebearings vary by glyph, producing an uneven, hand-built rhythm. Terminals are mostly blunt and angular, with occasional subtle tapering from the segmented construction, and the overall silhouette reads bold and high-contrast in shape despite the low contrast in stroke.
Best suited to display use such as posters, headlines, packaging, labels, and logo wordmarks where its faceted construction can be appreciated. It can work for short passages or captions when a handmade, offbeat tone is desired, but the irregular rhythm and angular counters make it less ideal for dense body text.
The font conveys a casual, crafty energy—part hand-lettered, part cut-paper or carved signage. Its angular facets and irregular spacing make it feel playful and a bit mischievous rather than polished or corporate, with a distinctive DIY character.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut or carved letterforms within a clean sans framework, replacing smooth curves with straight, faceted segments to add personality and texture. It prioritizes a distinctive, approachable voice over strict typographic regularity, aiming for memorable display impact.
At text sizes the segmented curves create lively sparkle and noticeable texture, especially in words with many rounded letters. The numerals and capitals maintain the same faceted logic, helping headings and short lines feel cohesive and intentionally rough.
