A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and subtly irregular contours. Strokes stay essentially monoline, with tight apertures and compact counters that keep the texture dense. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, but softened by curved corners; several joins show small notches and dents that read like ink traps or a worn print edge. The lowercase is compact with short ascenders/descenders and a prominent, tall x-height, producing an even, vertical rhythm in lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, signage, packaging, and merch graphics where dense letterforms can create a strong typographic block. It also works for labels and callouts that benefit from a bold, condensed footprint, though extended small-size reading may feel heavy due to tight apertures and dense color.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and punchy, with a slightly distressed, stamped quality. Its rounded block shapes keep it friendly, while the tight spacing and heavy color give it a bold, workmanlike presence. The mild roughness adds warmth and a handcrafted, analog edge without becoming chaotic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while maintaining a friendly, rounded geometry. The slight edge wear and notch-like joins suggest a deliberate nod to stamped or letterpress textures, adding character for display typography without sacrificing overall consistency.
In all-caps settings it forms strong rectangular word shapes and a consistent “black bar” rhythm, while mixed case retains clarity thanks to the large x-height. Rounded bowls and squared shoulders create a distinctive superellipse-like silhouette, and the small edge irregularities become more noticeable at larger sizes.
