A chunky, rounded sans with heavily irregular outlines and subtly uneven stroke edges, as if stamped, brushed, or printed on absorbent paper. Forms are simplified and sturdy, with soft corners and bumpy contours that create a lively, imperfect rhythm. Counters are generally open but somewhat lumpy, and spacing feels loosely set with small, natural-looking variations in character width and fit. Numerals and capitals share the same blunt, tactile construction, giving the set a cohesive, hand-worn texture.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, cover art, packaging, and attention-grabbing headings where the rough texture can be appreciated. It also fits craft-forward branding, playful merchandise, and editorial accents that want a handmade, printed feel rather than a clean, corporate voice.
The overall tone is informal and tactile—gritty without feeling aggressive, and friendly despite the rough surface. It reads like a DIY sign, zine headline, or screen-printed graphic, projecting a human, unpolished energy with a slightly mischievous edge.
The font appears designed to combine simple, legible letterforms with a deliberately worn surface, evoking imperfect ink coverage and rough production methods. Its aim is to add personality and analog texture quickly while keeping the underlying shapes familiar and readable.
The distressed texture is consistent across the alphabet, with edge roughness doing most of the stylistic work rather than extreme distortion. The design favors clear silhouettes and stout strokes, so it holds its character best when allowed to stay large enough for the texture to read as intentional.
