A condensed, monoline sans with rounded counters and softly squared terminals. Strokes maintain an even thickness with slight, deliberate irregularities that suggest a hand-rendered or stamped texture rather than a purely geometric draw. Curves are broadly rounded and letterforms stay compact, with tight apertures and relatively simple construction in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same straightforward, narrow rhythm, keeping a consistent color and density across lines of text.
Well-suited to packaging, labels, and signage-style graphics where a compact sans with a handmade edge adds character. It also works effectively for posters and short headlines, and as an editorial accent face when you want an informal, slightly rugged texture without sacrificing readability.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, with a lightly roughened finish that reads as human and practical. Its compact shapes and steady rhythm give it a functional, workmanlike feel, while the softened corners keep it friendly rather than mechanical.
The design appears intended to merge a simple condensed sans structure with a subtle handcrafted or stamped impression, creating a practical display face that feels lived-in and approachable in everyday applications.
Round forms such as O, C, and e are slightly squarish in their curvature, and many terminals appear subtly blunted, contributing to a printed/marked look. The texture is consistent enough to hold together in paragraphs, but it remains visibly organic, especially at larger sizes.
