A compact, heavy sans with softly rounded geometry and blunt terminals, rendered with an intentionally uneven, inked edge. Strokes keep a generally consistent thickness but show subtle wobble and irregular outlines, giving each letter a stamped or brush-painted feel. Counters are relatively small and sometimes slightly lopsided, while curves (C, O, S) stay generous and round, balancing the condensed proportions. Overall spacing and rhythm feel lively rather than mechanical, with small width differences across glyphs adding to the hand-drawn texture.
Well-suited to short, bold statements in posters, headlines, packaging, and signage where a handmade texture is desirable. It also fits merch graphics and informal branding, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the rough edges and irregular contour become part of the visual identity.
The font conveys an informal, crafted energy—friendly and a little gritty, like hand-painted signage or a screen-printed poster. Its roughened edges and bouncy shapes create a warm, approachable tone with a DIY character.
The design appears intended to capture the look of hand-inked or stamped lettering while maintaining straightforward, sans-style construction. It prioritizes impact and character over pristine uniformity, delivering a display face that feels crafted and energetic.
Uppercase forms read especially strong and blocky, while lowercase maintains the same chunky presence with simple, single-story constructions. Numerals follow the same painted texture and sturdy silhouettes, staying clear at display sizes where the edge detail can be appreciated.
