A condensed, heavy sans with softly squared, superelliptical curves and an irregular, hand-pressed outline. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with subtly wavy edges and occasional bulbous terminals that create a textured, stamped look rather than a mechanically clean finish. Counters are compact and rounded, apertures tend to be tight, and the overall rhythm is vertical and tall, helping the letters stack tightly while staying punchy. The lowercase is sturdy and simple, with a small, round i/j dot and blocky numerals that match the same roughened edge quality.
Best suited to headlines, short slogans, packaging, labels, and poster-style applications where a compact footprint and strong presence are useful. It also works well for playful branding elements, merchandise graphics, and display text that benefits from a tactile, imperfect finish.
The font reads as casual and human, with a slightly gritty, ink-on-paper personality. Its compact, chunky shapes feel friendly and upbeat while also hinting at DIY printing, craft packaging, or poster lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold display voice with a handmade, slightly distressed print texture while keeping letterforms simple and tightly proportioned for strong, space-efficient titles.
The distressed edge behavior is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving text a unified “printed” texture. Spacing appears relatively tight and the condensed proportions emphasize verticality, which increases impact in short lines but can make dense paragraphs feel busy at smaller sizes.
