A heavy, rounded sans with thick, blobby strokes and noticeably irregular contours. The outlines look pressure- or ink-affected, with ragged edges and occasional nicks that create a worn, stamped feel. Counters are compact and sometimes slightly asymmetric, while terminals are soft and bulbous rather than sharp. Spacing appears moderately open for such a dense design, helping maintain legibility despite the rough perimeter and uneven stroke boundaries.
Best suited to short-form display uses such as posters, album or event promos, packaging callouts, stickers, and bold social graphics where texture is an asset. It can work for subheads or short bursts of text at larger sizes, but the rough perimeter and tight counters make it less appropriate for long reading or small UI text.
The overall tone is loud, mischievous, and handmade, with a gritty, printed-on-paper character. Its imperfect edges and bouncy shapes suggest an informal, DIY attitude that reads more expressive than refined.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a deliberate roughness—capturing the look of worn letterpress, marker-stamp lettering, or distressed signage while staying broadly readable. The aim appears to be a friendly, high-energy display voice with tactile texture.
The distressed texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive “printed rough” voice. Rounded forms like O, C, and e show the strongest organic wobble, while straight-sided letters retain a slightly wavy, carved quality.
