A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and slightly uneven contours. Strokes are thick and fairly uniform, with softened corners and shallow ink-trap-like notches that create a subtly worn, stamped edge. Counters tend to be tight, apertures are small, and curves are squarish rather than fully circular, producing a dense, blocky color. The lowercase is simple and sturdy with single-storey forms, while numerals follow the same chunky, rounded geometry for consistent texture in display settings.
Best suited to high-impact display uses such as posters, headlines, merch graphics, packaging labels, and logo wordmarks where the roughened edge can be appreciated. It also works well for short calls-to-action, event branding, and retro-inspired advertising where a stamped or printed feel is desirable.
The overall tone feels bold, roughened, and energetic, like lettering pulled from a rubber stamp or screen-printed poster. Its controlled geometry keeps it orderly, while the distressed edge adds a casual, tactile attitude that reads as vintage and street-level rather than corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-efficient display voice that combines rounded-rectangle letter construction with a deliberately imperfect, inked finish. It aims to feel both geometric and handmade, providing a rugged, poster-ready texture without sacrificing overall legibility in larger settings.
At larger sizes the irregular edge texture becomes a defining feature; at smaller sizes, the tight counters and compact shapes can begin to fill in, so spacing and size choice matter. The design holds a steady vertical stance and produces strong, attention-grabbing word shapes in headlines.
