A heavy, rounded sans with chunky proportions and visibly irregular edges that read like worn ink or stamped printing. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with soft corners, compact counters, and a slightly bouncy baseline feel created by subtle inconsistencies in curve smoothness and terminal shapes. The overall rhythm is dense and sturdy, with simple geometric skeletons that remain clear despite the roughened outline.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as headlines, posters, labels, and packaging where its textured edges can be appreciated. It can also work for bold branding moments (especially for casual, craft, or vintage-themed identities) and for display text on social graphics or merch where a stamped/printed feel is desirable.
The texture gives the face a handmade, tactile character—confident and a bit mischievous rather than polished or corporate. It suggests casual authenticity and a vintage, screen-printed attitude, making words feel loud, friendly, and intentionally imperfect.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, readable sans with an intentionally distressed finish, balancing simple rounded letterforms with a gritty, printed texture. It prioritizes personality and tactile impact over pristine uniformity, evoking the look of ink spread, letterpress wear, or screen-print artifacts.
In the samples, the rough perimeter becomes a defining feature at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes it reads as added darkness and grain. Rounded forms like O/C/G and the numerals keep a friendly silhouette, while blunt terminals and narrow openings in some letters contribute to a strong, poster-like presence.
