A compact, sans-serif design with rounded terminals and lightly irregular construction. Strokes maintain an even, low-contrast thickness, while edges appear roughened and slightly lumpy, as if stamped or printed on absorbent paper. Letterforms are mostly upright with simple geometric skeletons, but each glyph shows small variations in contour and stroke width that create a deliberately imperfect rhythm. Counters are open and straightforward, and the overall spacing reads as practical and legible despite the textured outlines.
Well-suited to posters, packaging, and promotional materials that benefit from a rough, analog texture. It can work effectively for editorial headlines and pull quotes where a handmade, printed feel is desired, and it fits naturally in music, craft, and lifestyle branding contexts.
The texture and uneven perimeter give the font a gritty, handmade tone—casual and approachable rather than polished. It suggests analog production and imperfect reproduction, lending a slightly vintage, DIY character that feels tactile and human.
The design appears intended to mimic imperfect ink or worn printing while keeping familiar, readable letter structures. Its goal is to add atmosphere and tactility—suggesting hand-made or distressed reproduction—without relying on extreme deformation.
Uppercase forms are clean and simple, while lowercase adds a friendly, informal cadence; the overall impression stays consistent across letters and numerals. The distressed edge treatment is strong enough to be noticeable in headlines and short text, but it also introduces a soft fuzziness that will become more prominent at smaller sizes or on low-resolution output.
