A compact, heavy sans with a pronounced rightward slant and softly rounded outer shapes. Strokes are thick and fairly uniform, with gentle modulation and irregular, slightly torn-looking edges that read like ink or paint on textured paper. Counters are small and tight, giving the letters a dense, stamp-like color on the page. Terminals are blunt and simplified, and the overall rhythm is lively due to subtle per-letter unevenness and variable character widths.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, cover art, labels, and branding moments that benefit from a tactile, printed feel. It can work for subheads or callouts, but the dense counters and textured edges are most effective at larger sizes where the rough detail can breathe.
The font conveys a handmade, energetic tone—somewhere between screen-printed poster type and a worn rubber-stamp impression. Its roughened contours and chunky proportions feel approachable and informal, with a hint of vintage grit that adds personality without becoming overly decorative.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold display voice with a deliberately imperfect, analog surface—combining simple sans construction with a worn, hand-printed texture to create immediate visual impact and an informal, characterful presence.
Uppercase forms stay blocky and direct, while lowercase shapes remain sturdy and upright in structure despite the italic angle. Round letters (like O, Q, e) appear slightly squashed and weighty, and the numerals share the same bold, inked-in presence, keeping mixed text cohesive at display sizes.
