A rounded, sans-leaning display design with simple geometric construction and a lightly irregular, ink-pressed finish. Strokes are mostly monoline in feel but broken up by a consistent distressed texture—small chips, speckles, and uneven interior voids that make the letters look printed or stamped. Bowls and counters are generally open and circular (notably in O, Q, and e), while terminals are blunt and straightforward. Overall spacing reads friendly and breathable, with slightly varied apparent widths across characters, reinforcing the handmade rhythm.
Well suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture is a feature: posters, event titles, craft or food packaging, branding marks, labels, and signage. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want an intentionally worn, analog tone, but the surface noise may be less ideal for very small sizes or dense paragraphs.
The texture and softened geometry give the face a retro, shop-sign warmth—casual, approachable, and a bit gritty. It suggests analog printing, craft labeling, or worn signage rather than pristine digital cleanliness.
Designed to deliver a clean, rounded letter skeleton with an intentionally weathered print texture, balancing legibility with character. The goal appears to be an easygoing display face that instantly communicates an imperfect, tactile, vintage-leaning aesthetic.
Distress is applied consistently across caps, lowercase, and numerals, so the style remains cohesive in running text. Numerals and capitals have a bold, poster-like presence, while the lowercase keeps a simple, readable skeleton with a distinctly compact x-height impression.
