A chunky, rounded display face with hand-drawn construction and intentionally roughened contours. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with uneven edges and small interior speckling that reads like worn ink or distressed printing. Terminals are blunt and soft rather than sharp, and the overall rhythm feels irregular in a deliberate, crafted way. Counters are generally open and generous for the weight, while letter shapes vary slightly in width and stance, reinforcing an informal, handmade texture.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, packaging fronts, event flyers, and branded merch where the rough texture can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or social graphics, especially when an informal, hand-printed tone is desired rather than a clean typographic voice.
The font conveys a playful, scrappy energy—like a DIY poster, zine headline, or rubber-stamp impression that’s been used a few too many times. Its friendly rounded shapes keep it approachable, while the gritty distress adds attitude and a tactile, analog feel.
Likely designed to mimic hand-inked, stamped, or screen-printed lettering with a controlled distressed finish. The goal appears to be strong visual impact paired with an intentionally imperfect surface, creating a bold, approachable headline style with tactile character.
The distress is consistent across letters and numerals, appearing both along edges and as subtle voids within strokes, which helps maintain cohesion in longer lines. The bold massing holds up well at larger sizes, where the texture becomes a prominent stylistic feature.
