A compact, heavy sans with rounded corners and visibly uneven contours that suggest an inked or stamped source. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with softened terminals and slightly wobbly edges that create a textured silhouette without adding internal contrast. Counters are open and simple, and curves are built from broad, rounded shapes; diagonals and joins show small irregularities that keep the rhythm lively. Overall spacing is moderate, and the forms feel sturdy and simplified rather than geometric-precise.
Works well for posters, packaging, labels, and bold headlines where a hand-printed texture can add presence and charm. It can also serve for short paragraphs in editorial or promotional settings when a casual, rugged voice is desired, though its textured edges may feel busy at very small sizes.
The tone is informal and approachable, with a DIY, screen-printed character that reads as warm and unpretentious. The roughness adds energy and personality, pushing it toward expressive, human-made communication rather than polished corporate neutrality.
Likely designed to capture the look of hand-cut lettering or a worn stamp impression in a clean sans framework—prioritizing impact, warmth, and an artisanal feel while keeping letterforms simple and legible.
Uppercase forms are tall and block-forward, while lowercase retains straightforward, single-storey constructions that keep word shapes clear. Numerals match the same chunky, softened structure, making headings and short bursts of text feel cohesive.
