A heavy, compact sans with rounded bowls and simplified shapes, overlaid with aggressive roughening that creates chipped edges, torn corners, and occasional interior bite-outs. Strokes stay largely monolinear but appear irregular due to the distressed contour treatment, producing a rough printed/painted impression rather than smooth vector geometry. Letterforms are upright and tightly set in feel, with slightly inconsistent widths and lively, broken terminals that add texture across both caps and lowercase. Numerals are bold and rounded, matching the same scuffed, worn silhouette.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, album/mixtape artwork, and event promotion where texture is desirable. It can work in large display lines or branding marks that want a rugged, worn finish, but the heavy distressing makes it less appropriate for long-form reading or small UI text.
The overall tone is gritty and confrontational, with a DIY, hand-applied character that reads like worn signage or ink dragged across a rough surface. It conveys urgency and attitude, leaning toward underground, street, and industrial aesthetics.
Designed to deliver a bold display voice with built-in wear and grit, evoking rough printing, torn stencil edges, or distressed paint. The intention appears to be instant texture and attitude without needing additional effects, while keeping letterforms simple enough to remain legible at display sizes.
The distressing is consistent enough to feel like a designed texture rather than random noise, but it remains prominent at text sizes, creating a strong pattern of nicks and notches. Counters generally stay open and readable, while the rough edges add substantial visual noise that becomes part of the rhythm.
