A heavy, compact sans with blocky, rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners. Strokes stay broadly even, while the outlines show deliberate irregularity—ragged edges, slight waviness, and ink-trap-like nicks that give a printed or stamped feel. Counters are relatively tight and openings are modest, producing dense, high-impact letterforms. The texture is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive, gritty rhythm in lines of text.
Best suited to short, prominent settings where texture and weight are assets—posters, headlines, event graphics, packaging, labels, and bold signage. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that benefit from a stamped/printed impression, while longer body copy may feel heavy due to the tight counters and distressed edges.
The font reads tough and utilitarian, with a tactile, worn-in character that suggests hand-inked signage, rubber stamps, or distressed poster type. Its compressed massing and rough perimeter add urgency and attitude, leaning toward vintage-industrial and DIY aesthetics rather than polished corporate neutrality.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in a compact footprint while adding a deliberate distressed texture for a tactile, analog feel. It balances simple, rounded-rect geometry with controlled roughness to evoke printing artifacts and rugged utility without losing overall legibility.
At text sizes, the rugged contouring becomes a defining feature and can visually thicken joins and narrow interior spaces, especially in rounded letters and multi-stem forms. Numerals match the same blunt, compact construction, maintaining the poster-like density and strong silhouette.
