A hand-drawn, all-caps-and-lowercase sans with roughened contours and visibly uneven fill, as if printed with a dry brush or worn rubber stamp. Strokes are mostly monoline in feel but vary subtly due to texture, with rounded terminals, soft corners, and occasional nicks and dents along the edges. Counters are simple and open, while interior speckling and irregularities create a consistently distressed color across text. The overall rhythm is slightly bouncy, with small per-glyph shape differences that reinforce the handmade construction.
Works well for posters, headlines, and short editorial callouts where a rough, handmade voice is desired. It also suits packaging, labels, album art, and event flyers that benefit from an analog, worn-print aesthetic and strong silhouette readability at larger sizes.
The font conveys a gritty, crafty energy—casual and approachable, with a zine-like, analog imperfection. Its worn texture suggests DIY printing, vintage ephemera, and tactile materials, making it feel expressive rather than polished.
The design appears intended to emulate imperfect, tactile lettering—combining simple, legible forms with a consistent distressed texture to evoke print wear and handcrafted production. It prioritizes character and atmosphere over geometric precision, aiming for an expressive display voice that still holds together in short text.
The distressed detail is strong enough to read at display sizes while remaining coherent in short lines of text; in smaller settings the texture may visually thicken and darken the letterforms. Numerals and capitals share the same stamped, slightly irregular treatment, keeping the set visually unified.
