A chunky, faceted display sans with irregular outlines and intentionally uneven geometry. Strokes are heavy and taper subtly in places, creating a hand-cut, chiseled look with sharp corners and occasional notches. Counters are compact and sometimes asymmetrical, while curves read as polygonal rather than smooth. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across letters, producing a lively rhythm; round forms like O/Q appear slightly squared-off, and diagonals carry a wobbly, handmade energy.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, flyers, cover art, and packaging where the rugged silhouettes can carry personality. It can also work for game UI, stream overlays, or themed event graphics when used in short phrases and paired with a simpler companion for body text.
The overall tone is mischievous and rowdy, with a rough-hewn personality that feels more illustrative than typographic. Its jagged edges and uneven stroke behavior evoke DIY signage, comic lettering, and playful spooky or medieval-adjacent vibes without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handmade feel through deliberately imperfect contours and polygonal curves, prioritizing character and texture over neutrality. Its variable rhythm and chiseled forms suggest it was drawn to stand out in titles and branding with a playful, slightly wild edge.
At text sizes the texture becomes busy due to the broken edges and tight counters, while at larger sizes the distinctive facets and silhouettes read clearly. Numerals match the same cut-paper angularity, keeping the set visually consistent for headlines and short bursts of copy.
