A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and visibly rough, inked edges. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with blunt terminals and small bulges and dents that create a stamped or hand-cut look. Curves are tight and squarish (especially in bowls and counters), while verticals dominate the rhythm, giving the face a compact, poster-like texture. Spacing appears slightly uneven in places, reinforcing the handmade character while remaining broadly readable in the sample text.
Works best in display settings where texture and personality are desired—posters, editorial headlines, packaging, merch, and album or event graphics. It can also suit short UI labels or section headers when a rugged, handcrafted tone is intentional, but the distressed edges may be less suitable for long-form text at small sizes.
The overall tone is gritty and informal, with a playful, DIY energy. The distressed outlines suggest analog printing or cut-letter signage, lending a slightly rebellious, indie feel rather than a polished corporate voice.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, condensed silhouette with an intentionally imperfect, print-worn surface. The superelliptical rounding and blunt terminals aim for approachable geometry, while the rough contouring adds tactility and an analog, handcrafted impression.
Uppercase forms read as tall and assertive, with simplified geometry and minimal internal detailing. Lowercase is similarly compact and sturdy, and the numerals share the same blunt, ink-worn finish, making the set feel cohesive for short display lines and punchy headlines.
