A heavy, compact sans with rounded, superellipse-like construction and visibly irregular edges. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, but with subtle wobble and swelling that suggests ink spread or a rough printing process. Counters are open but uneven, terminals are mostly blunt, and curves feel slightly squarish rather than purely circular. Overall rhythm is lively and imperfect, with small variations in stroke contour and width from glyph to glyph that read as intentionally handmade.
Well-suited to display work such as posters, packaging, labels, merchandise, and social graphics where a tactile, handmade impression is desired. It also works for short headlines and callouts in branding systems that want warmth and rough authenticity, while longer passages are better kept to larger sizes.
The font conveys a friendly, DIY energy with a gritty, analog edge. Its roughened outlines and chunky forms feel informal and expressive, leaning toward a poster/marker personality rather than a clean, technical voice.
The design appears intended to blend simple, rounded sans geometry with a deliberately distressed, inked texture—capturing the immediacy of hand-rendered lettering while retaining a straightforward, all-purpose character set for bold display messaging.
The texture is consistent across the alphabet, creating a cohesive “printed by hand” look. In text, the irregular edges add character but also increase visual noise, so it reads best when given generous size and spacing rather than dense, small settings.
