A heavy, rounded sans with chunky strokes and visibly rough, uneven edges that mimic ink spread or worn printing. Counters are generally open and circular, while terminals and joins are softly squared off and irregular, creating a hand-cut, stamped look. Proportions lean compact with sturdy forms; spacing feels slightly inconsistent in an intentional way, adding a lively texture across words. The figures match the same rugged, bold silhouette, with simple, legible shapes that favor impact over refinement.
Well-suited for short, high-impact typography such as posters, headlines, event graphics, and bold callouts. The rugged texture also fits packaging, labels, album/cover art, and merchandise where a tactile, handmade feel is desirable. Use sparingly for long-form text, where the strong texture can become visually heavy.
The overall tone is gritty and tactile, like a poster pulled from an old press or a handmade label. It reads as friendly and energetic rather than strict or corporate, with a casual, slightly rebellious attitude that suits informal messaging and bold statements.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold sans foundation with an intentionally distressed, analog finish—capturing the look of imperfect printing or hand-rendered letterforms while keeping overall shapes simple and readable.
At text sizes the distressed contour becomes a dominant texture, so the font tends to read best when given room to breathe and sufficient size/contrast. The irregular edges create natural variation line-to-line, which can add character but may reduce clarity in dense paragraphs.
