A heavy, flared sans with wedge-like terminals and a subtly calligraphic stroke modulation. Curves are broad and slightly squarish, with softened corners and occasional angled cuts that create a lively, faceted edge. The texture is dark and compact, with tight counters in letters like a/e/s and prominent internal shapes in O/Q. Lowercase forms lean toward single‑storey constructions (notably a and g), and details like the diamond i/j dots and a sharp, hooked f add distinctive rhythm.
This font is well suited to headlines and short passages where a distinctive silhouette is an advantage—posters, brand marks, packaging, and editorial titles. It can also work for larger-size text blocks when a dark, expressive texture is desired, though its strong internal shaping and tight counters suggest giving it ample size and spacing for clarity.
The overall tone is energetic and characterful, balancing sturdy, poster-like presence with a handcrafted, storybook flair. Its quirky terminal shapes and animated silhouettes give it a friendly, slightly eccentric voice rather than a neutral or corporate one.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, memorable sans voice with artisanal flair—using flared terminals, controlled contrast, and idiosyncratic details to create a unique rhythm that stands out in display typography.
Round glyphs (O, o, 0, 8, 9) emphasize strong internal counterforms that read as deliberate cut-ins rather than purely geometric bowls. Diagonals and joins (K, V, W, X, y) are crisp and angular, helping the face stay punchy in display settings while maintaining a consistent, sculpted feel across the set.
