A condensed, hand-drawn sans with tall proportions and visibly irregular contours. Strokes show medium contrast with subtly varied thickness, as if made with a dry brush or worn marker, producing rough edges, blunted terminals, and occasional ink wobble. Counters tend to be rounded-rectangular rather than perfectly circular, and many joins and curves feel slightly uneven by design, creating a lively rhythm across words. Spacing appears tight and compact, with narrow letterforms and a consistent upright stance that keeps lines orderly despite the distressed texture.
This font is well suited to display settings where a compact, gritty voice is desirable—posters, cover titles, labels, and editorial headlines. It can also work for short blocks of text in pull quotes or subheads when the goal is character and texture over pristine readability, especially at moderate-to-large sizes where the distressed edges remain clear.
The overall tone is raw and tactile—more zine-like and handcrafted than polished or corporate. Its narrow, upright build reads assertive and direct, while the roughness adds grit and a casual, human presence.
The design appears intended to combine condensed, space-saving proportions with an intentionally imperfect, analog texture. It aims to deliver a bold, human-made feel while keeping forms straightforward and upright for practical, punchy typography.
The texture is consistent enough to feel intentional rather than accidental, helping the font maintain coherence in longer text samples. Numerals and punctuation match the same worn, inked treatment, supporting cohesive typographic color in headings and short passages.
