A compact, heavy sans with tightly proportioned letters and a strong vertical stance. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing squarish bowls and counters (notably in O/C/G and the numerals) and giving the overall texture a stamped, cut, or screen-printed feel. Terminals tend to be blunt with softly rounded corners, and many joins show small notches and slight irregularities that read as deliberate edge character rather than smooth, machined drawing. The rhythm is dense and dark, with simplified interior spaces and a sturdy, compressed silhouette that holds together well at display sizes.
Best suited to display roles where density and impact are desirable: posters, big headings, event and music promos, packaging, and brand marks that want a condensed, punchy voice. It can also work for short labels or signage where quick recognition matters, but the heavy texture and tight counters make it less ideal for long-form text.
The tone is bold and assertive with a slightly mischievous, handmade edge. It evokes vintage poster typography and utilitarian labeling—confident, loud, and a bit gritty—while the rounded-square construction keeps it friendly and approachable rather than harsh.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in a compressed footprint, combining rounded-square letter construction with intentionally roughened edges for a tactile, printed character. The goal appears to be a bold display face that feels both utilitarian and expressive, balancing strong geometry with human, slightly distressed detail.
Uppercase forms present as particularly tall and compact, while lowercase remains sturdy with simple, straightforward constructions and a single-story a. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangular logic, producing chunky, legible figures suited to attention-grabbing settings. The small edge nicks and uneven contours add personality but may become more pronounced in very large, high-contrast applications.
