A compact, upright, all-purpose Latin with hand-cut, inked letterforms and visibly roughened edges. Strokes are generally even but slightly irregular, with subtle wobble in verticals and curves that gives each glyph a stamped or brush-printed feel. Counters are open and fairly simple, terminals tend to be blunt, and curves (notably in O, C, G, and S) show uneven contouring and small nicks that read as print wear. Overall spacing and proportions feel tight and efficient, while width varies naturally from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the handmade rhythm.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings where a tactile, handmade feel is desired, such as posters, packaging, labels, café menus, craft branding, and book or album covers. It can work for brief subheads or pull quotes when a casual, printed texture is preferred over a clean sans.
The font conveys an artisanal, imperfect charm—casual and approachable rather than polished. Its texture suggests ink on paper, rough screen print, or a worn stamp, giving a slightly nostalgic, indie tone that feels friendly and human.
The design appears intended to mimic imperfect, analog reproduction—like worn letterpress, screen print, or brushed signage—while keeping familiar, straightforward forms for easy reading. It prioritizes character and texture over geometric precision, aiming for an authentic, human-made impression.
The texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive distressed surface without collapsing readability. The sample text shows the roughness staying legible at display sizes, with the most character coming from edge breakup and slightly uneven stroke boundaries rather than extreme deformation.
