A heavy, rounded sans with compact, blocky forms and softly curved corners, rendered with a deliberately rough, inked texture. Strokes show uneven edges, small bites, and speckling that mimic worn printing, while counters stay mostly open for clear recognition at display sizes. The proportions are sturdy and slightly condensed in places, with simple geometric construction and minimal modulation beyond the distressed surface. Numerals and caps carry the same robust, poster-like silhouette, with a consistent, gritty finish across the set.
Best suited for posters, packaging, apparel graphics, and brand marks that benefit from a tactile, print-worn look. It works particularly well for short headlines, labels, and punchy callouts where the texture can be appreciated without compromising readability.
The overall tone is bold and tactile, evoking hand-printed signage, rubber-stamp marks, and aged posters. Its distressed surface adds a gritty, lived-in character, while the rounded shapes keep it approachable and slightly playful rather than harsh.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, friendly sans silhouette with a convincing worn-print finish, giving digital type an analog, stamped or letterpress-inspired presence. The goal appears to be quick, characterful impact for display settings while keeping letterforms straightforward and legible.
Texture intensity is noticeable even in larger sample text, where the irregular edges create a lively rhythm and a faintly noisy color on the line. The distressing reads as printing wear rather than random distortion, which helps the font maintain cohesion in headlines and short phrases.
