The Cutouts | Hand Cut-Out Font

US$17.00

Bring the rhythm of jazz into your designs with The Cutouts — a hand-cut, all-caps display font that grooves like a Coltrane solo. Crafted entirely by hand with scissors, this font is steeped in the spirit of Matisse’s cut-outs, vintage jazz posters, and the tactile energy of DIY printmaking. Every letter carries raw edges, visual swing, and analogue warmth.

Each uppercase letter was hand-cut for an authentic, imperfect feel. For layering and contrast, the lowercase set offers a thinner, lighter version of the uppercase letters — not traditional lowercase, but a second “cut” of the same forms, giving your compositions a sense of improvisation and movement, like notes bending over a Blue Train riff.

Perfect for:

  • Jazz-inspired posters, flyers, and album art

  • Editorial layouts and art books

  • Creative branding with soul

  • Zines, printed matter, and DIY graphics

  • Collage, experimentation, and digital compositions

What’s included:

  • Uppercase A–Z hand-cut letters (with alternates)

  • Thinner, lighter version of uppercase mapped to lowercase

  • .otf font file

  • Basic punctuation

Note: This is a decorative display font and may not include all punctuation or symbols.

Your purchase includes a Standard Desktop Font License for one user (one seat). This covers use in print (posters, packaging, branding), digital graphics (web, social media, apps), logos, and both personal and client projects.

If you need multiple users, web/app embedding, or fonts for resale/merchandise, please reach out to arrange an Extended License.
