A heavy, compact sans with rounded counters and a noticeably rough, distressed edge. Strokes show uneven, ink-like outlines and small nicks that create a stamped or printed texture, while interior shapes remain fairly simple and open. Curves are broad and bulbous (notably in O/C/G), with occasional wedge-like joins and slightly irregular stroke terminals that add visual movement. Overall spacing feels sturdy and somewhat uneven in a deliberate way, reinforcing the handmade, worn impression.
Best suited to display settings where texture and impact are desired—posters, large headlines, labels, and brand marks that benefit from a rugged print feel. It can work for short text blocks at larger sizes, but the distressed edges and heavy color make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The font conveys a bold, spirited personality that feels vintage and tactile, like signage or packaging printed with a well-used block. Its roughness adds energy and approachability, making the tone more informal and characterful than pristine display grotesks.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, attention-grabbing sans with a deliberately weathered, analog finish, emulating ink spread, worn type, or stamped lettering while keeping forms simple enough to stay readable.
Uppercase forms read as strong headline shapes with softened geometry, while the lowercase keeps the same chunky rhythm and textured perimeter, helping maintain a consistent voice across cases. Numerals are similarly robust and legible, with the same distressed treatment.
