A heavy, condensed sans with rounded-rectangle construction and subtly squared curves. Strokes are thick and fairly uniform, with slightly softened corners and an intentionally uneven, distressed edge that suggests ink spread or worn printing. Counters are compact but clear, and the overall rhythm is tight and punchy, with small width variations between letters and sturdy, upright proportions across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as poster titles, packaging marks, signage, badges, and bold editorial headers where texture can add character. It can work for brief subheads or callouts, but the distressed edges and dense spacing make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The texture and compact heft give it a gritty, workmanlike voice—confident, a bit rough, and reminiscent of stamped labels or worn posters. It reads as bold and utilitarian rather than polished, bringing a tactile, analog feel to headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint while adding a deliberately weathered print texture. Its softened rectangular geometry balances the rough edges, aiming for a bold, vintage-industrial display voice.
Uppercase forms feel poster-oriented and monoline in spirit, while the lowercase maintains simple, sturdy shapes with minimal modulation. Numerals match the same chunky, worn treatment, keeping the set visually consistent for display use.
