A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared counters. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with slightly irregular edges that suggest a stamped or inked texture rather than crisp geometric outlines. Terminals tend to be blunt and rounded, and curves (C, S, O) read as squarish superellipse forms, giving the face a sturdy, blocky rhythm. Lowercase shows single-storey forms and simple, open apertures, while spacing feels a touch uneven in a natural, handmade way.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and label systems where its chunky rounded forms and inked texture can read clearly and add character. It can work for short bursts of text in editorial or social graphics, especially when a casual, handcrafted tone is desired, but the deliberate roughness is most effective when given room to breathe.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, mixing a friendly rounded silhouette with a gritty, printed imperfection. It evokes DIY packaging, craft labels, and poster lettering where a little roughness adds personality and warmth. The sturdy weight keeps it confident and loud without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly presence using rounded-rectangle geometry, while introducing subtle irregularities to avoid a sterile geometric feel. Its forms prioritize quick recognition and a strong silhouette, aiming for a playful, handmade voice suitable for contemporary display typography.
The texture is consistent across the alphabet and numerals, with small wobbles and edge roughness that become more noticeable at larger sizes. Round letters stay squarish rather than fully circular, helping maintain a cohesive, compact color in lines of text. Numerals share the same blunt, chunky treatment for a unified look in headlines and short set copy.
