A chunky, blocky sans with softened corners and a heavy, even stroke that stays visually consistent across the alphabet. Letterforms are compact with slightly irregular widths and offbeat geometry, creating a lively rhythm rather than strict repetition. Edges look abraded and slightly chipped, as if printed through worn ink or cut by hand, with occasional nicks and uneven terminals that add texture while keeping counters open and legible. The overall silhouette is bold and rounded, with simplified shapes and minimal internal detailing.
Well suited to display typography where texture and personality are desirable, such as posters, event flyers, album art, and playful branding. It can also work for packaging, labels, and sticker-style graphics where a stamped or hand-cut look helps the design feel tactile. For best results, use at medium-to-large sizes where the rough contouring reads as intentional texture rather than visual noise.
The font reads as casual and energetic, with a handmade roughness that feels approachable rather than aggressive. Its imperfect outlines suggest DIY craft, screenprint, or stamped signage, giving text a quirky, tactile personality. The tone lands in a fun, slightly rebellious space—playful enough for kid-friendly work, but gritty enough for posters and packaging that want texture.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, friendly display voice with a deliberately imperfect surface, echoing handmade lettering and worn print processes. The aim appears to be high-impact readability combined with a distinctive, textured silhouette that adds character to short phrases and branding marks.
In longer settings the rough edges create a consistent grain that becomes part of the color of the text, so it tends to perform best when allowed some size and breathing room. The numerals match the same chunky, irregular construction, supporting bold headlines and display lines with a cohesive texture.
