A heavy, rounded sans with chunky strokes and subtly irregular edges that suggest a hand-cut or stamped construction. Counters are generally open and circular-to-oval, while corners and terminals are softly squared with slight wobble, giving a textured silhouette without sacrificing clarity. Proportions feel generously set with broad letterforms and compact joins; diagonals (like in K, V, W, X) are thick and stable, and curves (O, C, G) read as full and slightly organic rather than mechanically perfect.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium blocks of display text where a friendly, handcrafted presence is desired. It works well for posters, packaging, labels, and branding applications that benefit from a bold, approachable tone, and it can hold up in signage where quick recognition matters.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a craft-made, poster-like energy. Its mild roughness adds personality and approachability, making the voice feel lively and human rather than corporate or sterile.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong display voice with a human, tactile feel—combining simple sans construction with deliberate irregularity to evoke printmaking or stamp-like warmth while remaining highly legible.
In the sample text, the texture becomes more noticeable at larger sizes, where the uneven contours read as intentional character. At smaller sizes, the dense weight and softened shaping keep wordforms robust, with punctuation and numerals matching the same sturdy, slightly imperfect rhythm.
