A faceted, angular sans with strokes built from sharp planar cuts rather than smooth curves. The letterforms are blocky and slightly irregular, with uneven stroke edges and subtle rotation/lean differences that create a hand-cut rhythm. Counters tend to be compact and polygonal (notably in O, Q, and 8), and terminals often finish in abrupt, wedge-like ends. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing an intentionally rough, assembled look while keeping overall silhouettes clear at display sizes.
Works best for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, covers, packaging callouts, and identity accents where the faceted texture can be a feature. It also suits music and event graphics, DIY-themed materials, and playful editorial sidebars. For extended reading, it’s better used sparingly as a display companion.
The font reads as mischievous and handmade—like cut paper, carved lettering, or improvised signage. Its jagged facets and inconsistent geometry give it a rebellious, scrappy energy that feels more playful than aggressive, with a strong DIY character.
The design appears aimed at capturing a cut-from-cardboard or carved, polygonal aesthetic—prioritizing bold silhouettes, energetic rhythm, and tactile irregularity over smooth precision. The consistent use of facets across letters and numerals suggests an intentional, stylized construction meant to feel handmade and graphic.
The uppercase has a louder, poster-like presence while the lowercase carries more quirky idiosyncrasies (single-storey forms and simplified structures). Numerals match the same faceted construction and look especially suited to bold, graphic settings. The overall texture is intentionally uneven, so it will appear more expressive than refined in longer passages.
