A heavy, compact display face built from broad strokes and sharp planar facets, where curves are largely replaced by clipped angles and flattened arcs. The silhouettes feel carved and geometric, with frequent diagonal terminals and polygonal counters that create a crisp, cut-paper rhythm. Proportions vary noticeably between letters, giving the line a lively, irregular cadence while maintaining consistent stroke density and sturdy, stable stems. Lowercase forms remain bold and simplified, with single-storey constructions and distinctive notches that reinforce the faceted theme.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, event titles, packaging callouts, branding marks, and display signage where the bold faceting can be appreciated. It also works well for playful editorial headers or themed graphics that want a crafted, retro-leaning voice.
The overall tone is exuberant and slightly mischievous, evoking hand-cut signage, mid‑century novelty lettering, and game or carnival graphics. Its chunky geometry reads confident and attention-seeking, with a friendly roughness that feels more fun than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust display presence with a distinctive faceted construction—turning conventional sans forms into angular, chiseled silhouettes that read as graphic and decorative. The emphasis is on personality and punch rather than neutrality, using irregular proportions and clipped curves to create a memorable texture in words.
Round letters like O/Q/8 become emblematic faceted shapes, and joins often form sharp interior corners that add sparkle at large sizes. The design’s strong black shapes and clipped details can tighten readability at small sizes, but become characterful and energetic in headlines.
