A chunky, rounded sans with heavy, block-like construction and softly squared corners. Strokes show subtle irregularities and uneven edge texture, giving a hand-printed, slightly distressed feel rather than a perfectly geometric finish. Counters are compact and squarish, apertures tend to be tight, and terminals end bluntly. Proportions vary a bit from glyph to glyph, contributing to an organic rhythm in words and lines, while overall forms remain simple and highly legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, bold headlines, packaging fronts, labels, and logo wordmarks where texture and mass can carry the design. It can also work for short UI or social graphics, but the tight counters and rough edges make it less ideal for long, small-size reading.
The texture and softened geometry convey an informal, rugged tone—part comic, part DIY signage. It reads confident and approachable, with a tactile, stamped quality that adds energy and personality to short messages.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, handmade edge—combining simple rounded sans forms with intentional roughness to evoke printing, stamping, or cutout signage aesthetics.
The alphabet shows consistent corner rounding and a deliberate roughness along verticals and curves, which becomes more noticeable as size increases. Numerals and capitals feel especially compact and sturdy, producing strong silhouettes and clear word shapes in headlines.
