A heavy, slanted display face with chunky, rounded forms and compact counters. Strokes show uneven, worn-looking contours with occasional nicks and small interior pits that read like distressed ink or rough printing. Letterforms are generally sans-like and simplified, with lively curvature and slight wobble in stems and joins, giving the set a handmade rhythm. Numerals follow the same bold, slightly irregular construction, staying clear at display sizes while preserving the roughed-up surface texture.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, event flyers, punchy headlines, packaging callouts, and branding marks that want a roughened, energetic voice. It can work for subheads and short bursts of copy when you want the texture to be noticeable, especially at larger sizes where the distressed details can read clearly.
The overall tone is loud and playful, with a scrappy, high-energy feel that suggests DIY printing, street-poster grit, and comic-era exuberance. The slant and rugged edges add motion and attitude, making the text feel assertive and a bit mischievous rather than refined.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold display voice with deliberate wear and irregularity, combining a friendly, rounded construction with distressed printing artifacts to create a lively, attention-grabbing texture. It prioritizes attitude and surface character while keeping letter shapes simple enough to remain legible in typical headline use.
The distress is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, appearing as both edge erosion and small internal blemishes, which helps maintain cohesion in longer lines of text. The silhouette remains strong and readable, but the texture is prominent enough to become a key part of the visual identity.
