A sturdy sans serif with simplified, mostly geometric construction and open counters. Strokes are fairly even with modest contrast, and terminals are cleanly cut yet irregularly worn, showing small chips, flecks, and rough interior bite marks that mimic distressed printing. Curves stay round and controlled while straights remain firm, creating a steady rhythm that reads clearly despite the texture. Lowercase forms are straightforward and modern, with a plain single-storey “a” and “g” and compact, legible numerals.
Well-suited for headlines, posters, and packaging that benefit from a tough, weathered voice. It also works for badges, labels, and album art where a distressed finish can provide instant texture without sacrificing basic readability.
The overall tone feels gritty and practical, like lettering pulled from utilitarian signage or an aged print artifact. Its worn surface adds a rugged, hands-on character that suggests authenticity and use rather than polish.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable, contemporary sans structure with a deliberately aged overlay, balancing clarity with a tactile, printed-wear effect for impactful display typography.
The distressing is distributed unevenly across glyphs, producing a naturalistic, slightly random texture while keeping primary letter shapes intact. At larger sizes the speckling becomes a defining graphic feature; at smaller sizes it collapses into a darker, denser color.
