A chunky, hand-drawn sans with irregular contours and visibly distressed interiors that mimic worn ink or rough printing. Strokes are thick with subtly uneven weight, softened corners, and slight wobble in verticals and curves. Letterforms lean toward simple, rounded geometry (notably in bowls and counters), while widths vary per glyph, creating a lively, non-uniform rhythm. The texture is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, with scattered nicks and speckling that remain legible at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography where texture and personality are desirable—posters, bold headlines, packaging, merch, stickers, and social graphics. It can also work for short blurbs or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the distressed details.
The overall tone is casual and expressive, mixing a friendly, cartoon-like structure with gritty surface wear. It feels energetic and approachable rather than formal, suggesting hand-made signage, DIY packaging, or screen-printed ephemera.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly recognizable, hand-inked look with built-in wear and print artifacts, giving layouts a crafted, tactile feel without additional effects. Its straightforward, rounded letter structures prioritize quick readability while the distressing adds character and attitude.
Capitals are broad and sturdy with compact apertures, while lowercase forms stay simple and slightly bouncy, reinforcing an informal voice. Numerals follow the same rounded, ink-worn construction, maintaining cohesion for headlines and short numeric callouts.
