A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and slightly uneven, hand-cut geometry. Strokes are thick and generally consistent, with subtle wobble in curves and terminals that keeps the rhythm lively rather than mechanical. The letterforms show a worn, speckled texture and occasional interior roughness, as if ink has skipped or the surface has been abraded. Counters are compact but open enough to stay readable at display sizes, and the numerals match the same chunky, simplified construction.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, product packaging, labels, storefront or event signage, and bold editorial headlines. It also works well for logos and merch graphics where a tactile, printed look is desired; for longer text, the heavy texture may be more effective in short, high-impact passages.
The overall tone feels casual and approachable, with a crafty, screen-printed grit. Its roughened texture and bouncy shapes suggest vintage packaging, DIY signage, and playful branding where imperfection is part of the charm.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, friendly display voice with a deliberately worn print character. It balances simple, rounded construction with surface distress to evoke analog production methods and add personality without sacrificing quick recognizability.
The texture is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive distressed color on the page. Round letters (O, C, G, e) emphasize the soft, friendly silhouette, while straighter forms (E, F, T, 1, 7) keep the set legible and punchy. Spacing appears comfortable for headlines and short blocks, producing a dense, poster-like presence.
