A heavy, all-caps-and-lowercase sans with simplified, blocky forms and slightly uneven proportions. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with subtly wobbly edges and frequent interior pitting that suggests worn ink or rough printing. Curves are broad and rounded, counters are generally open but irregular, and joins show small nicks and dents that keep the rhythm lively. Numerals match the chunky construction, staying legible while retaining the same distressed surface texture.
Best suited to display use such as posters, bold headlines, packaging, and brand marks that want a tactile, printed feel. It also works well for album art, event graphics, and social creatives where a rough, crafted texture can carry the visual theme without additional effects.
The overall tone feels gritty and handmade, like a stamped poster or screen print that has seen repeated use. Its friendly rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the scuffed texture adds attitude and a DIY, street-level energy.
The design appears intended to merge solid, legible grotesque-like shapes with an overprinted, weathered finish, producing a dependable display face that instantly reads as handmade and distressed.
The texture is consistent across the set, reading as intentional distress rather than random noise. The mix of sturdy silhouettes and irregular edge wear helps maintain clarity at larger sizes while still delivering character.
