A compact, heavy sans with squared, superellipse-based counters and softly rounded outer corners. Strokes are thick and assertive, with tight apertures and a generally vertical, condensed stance that creates a dense texture in lines of text. Many glyphs show deliberate wear: small chips, speckles, and roughened edges that break up the solid black shapes. Terminals are mostly blunt, and curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than circular construction, producing boxy bowls and counters (notably in O, D, P, and 0).
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, bold branding, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where the distressed texture can read clearly. It also fits merchandise graphics and signage-style compositions, especially when a rugged print or stamped look is desired.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a screen-printed or weathered sign aesthetic. Its distressed surface adds a tactile, lived-in feel that reads as vintage-industrial and slightly rebellious, emphasizing impact over refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact width while adding character through intentional distressing. Its superellipse-driven shapes keep the letterforms cohesive and sturdy, while the worn texture evokes analog printing, aged paint, or battered signage.
Spacing appears tight and the heavy weight makes interior whitespace a key part of legibility; the distressed texture is most visible in large sizes where the erosion details become a feature rather than noise. Numerals match the same compact, blocky construction and carry the same worn patterning, supporting consistent headline use.
