A compact, heavy sans with blocky proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with soft corners and subtly irregular edges that read as inked, worn, or stamped rather than mechanically perfect. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are small, giving letters a dense, poster-friendly color. The overall rhythm is narrow and compact, with slight glyph-to-glyph irregularities that add a tactile, hand-made texture while staying consistent in structure.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, labels, and packaging where the dense, stamped texture can be appreciated. It can also work well for merchandise graphics and bold branding moments that want a crafted, slightly distressed voice rather than a polished corporate finish.
The tone feels rugged and lively—like a bold stamp, screen print, or distressed sign. Its softened corners keep it friendly, while the roughened edges add grit and attitude, balancing playful energy with an industrial, workwear sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint while adding a deliberately imperfect, printed texture. It aims to evoke the look of bold letterpress, rubber-stamp, or screen-printed lettering with rounded-rect geometry for a cohesive, contemporary shape language.
The texture is most noticeable along verticals and at terminals, where edges look slightly abraded rather than clean-cut. Rounded forms (O, Q, C) keep a squarish silhouette, reinforcing the superelliptical, rounded-rect feel across the set.
