A chunky, angular sans built from sharp planar facets rather than smooth curves. Strokes are consistently heavy with minimal internal modulation, and corners appear cut or chipped, producing a deliberately irregular outline. Counters tend toward polygonal shapes, and joins often form pointed, asymmetric terminals that create a lively, uneven rhythm across words. Proportions are generally broad, with sturdy verticals and compact, simplified interior detailing that keeps the texture dense and graphic.
Best suited to short display settings such as posters, event titles, packaging callouts, and playful branding where the faceted texture can be a feature. It also works for comic-style headings or splash text, especially when you want an intentionally rough, hand-cut look rather than a smooth geometric finish.
The faceted, cut-paper energy gives the font a mischievous, cartoonish attitude with a slightly rough, punk-craft edge. Its irregularity reads as intentionally handmade and energetic, projecting informality and movement rather than refinement.
The design appears intended to translate a hand-cut, faceted construction into a bold display sans, prioritizing personality and graphic impact over neutral readability. Its consistent heavy weight and intentionally uneven contouring suggest a focus on lively texture and a crafted, DIY voice.
At text sizes the jagged silhouette becomes the dominant feature, so spacing and word shapes feel animated and bouncy. The numerals and caps maintain the same chiseled geometry, supporting cohesive display use where a strong, quirky texture is desired.
