A compact, condensed sans with heavy, block-like strokes and softly rounded rectangle construction throughout. Curves and counters tend toward squarish, superellipse shapes, giving rounds a sturdy, stamped feel rather than a geometric circle. Edges show subtle irregularities and inky wobble, with slightly uneven terminals and small variations in contour that read like printed wear. Proportions are tight and vertical, with short apertures and dense interiors that emphasize a solid, poster-ready texture.
Best suited to display settings where impact and texture matter: posters, bold headlines, logotypes, packaging, labels, and storefront or wayfinding-style signage. It will also work for short UI labels or merch graphics when a condensed, rugged sans voice is desired, though extended body text may feel dense at smaller sizes.
The overall tone is bold and practical, with a rugged, screen-printed character that suggests workwear graphics, packaging, or signage. Its condensed stance and blunt shapes feel industrial and no-nonsense, while the softened corners and slight roughness add warmth and a handmade, vintage flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact condensed sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and a deliberately imperfect, inked finish—capturing the feel of stamped or screen-printed lettering while staying straightforward and highly legible at display sizes.
Uppercase forms stay compact and monolithic, while lowercase maintains a simple, single-storey rhythm where applicable, keeping the voice informal and direct. Numerals match the same squared, heavy construction for consistent texture in headings and short data strings.
