A heavy, blocky sans with compact proportions and softly rounded corners. Strokes are largely monolinear but show subtle wobble and gentle curvature, giving counters and terminals a slightly inked, handmade feel. The lowercase is sturdy and squat, with simple construction and minimal modulation; bowls and apertures tend toward closed, while joins are thick and forgiving. Capitals read as broad, poster-like shapes with small irregularities in curvature and width that create a lively, slightly uneven rhythm across words.
Best suited to posters, headlines, and branding where a strong typographic voice is needed. The chunky shapes and soft corners also fit packaging and label work, as well as signage-style applications where you want impact without sharp, technical precision.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and rugged, like stamped lettering or cut stencils, but with a friendly, informal looseness. It carries an industrial, workmanlike presence while still reading playful and approachable due to its soft corners and subtly imperfect geometry.
The design appears intended to deliver high visual weight with an intentionally imperfect, hand-cut or stamped character. It prioritizes immediate recognition and texture over strict geometric regularity, creating a distinctive display voice that remains readable in short blocks of text.
Spacing appears intentionally roomy with strong sidebearings, helping the dense letterforms stay legible at display sizes. Figures are wide and emphatic, matching the alphabet’s chunky color and reinforcing a bold, sign-like texture in lines of text.
