A heavy, display-oriented sans with simplified, blocky construction and softly rounded corners. Strokes are thick with noticeable irregularities, including worn-looking voids and speckled nicks that suggest distressed ink or rough printing. Curves (C, G, O) are broad and open, terminals are generally blunt, and counters are compact, giving letters a dense, poster-friendly silhouette. Spacing and letter widths feel intentionally uneven, reinforcing a handmade, imperfect rhythm across both cases and numerals.
Best suited for short to medium display copy where the texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, badges, packaging, labels, and merchandise graphics. It can also work for brand marks and event promotions that want a hand-printed, slightly weathered presence.
The overall tone is gritty yet friendly—like a rubber-stamp or screen-printed mark that’s been used a lot. It reads as casual and energetic, with a nostalgic, DIY character that suits informal, human-centered messaging rather than polished corporate typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable display voice while simulating imperfect production—worn ink, rough paper, or aged stamping—so compositions feel crafted and tactile rather than digitally pristine.
The distressing is integrated into the letterforms (not just rough outlines), creating a convincing worn texture at larger sizes. The lowercase retains a simple, sturdy feel with minimal calligraphic modulation, and the numerals match the same compact, slightly quirky sturdiness.
