A compact, condensed sans with heavy strokes and rounded-rectangle construction in its bowls and counters. The outlines show deliberate roughness—slightly uneven edges, ink-like bite marks, and soft cornering that reads as stamped or printed under pressure. Curves are simplified into superelliptic forms, and joints are sturdy with minimal modulation, giving letters a tight, vertical rhythm. Numerals and lowercase share the same dense color and compact proportions, staying legible while maintaining the rugged texture.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where its dense, gritty texture can carry personality—posters, packaging, labels, badges, and bold signage. It can work for subheads or pull quotes when ample size and spacing are available, especially in designs aiming for an analog, printed aesthetic.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and hands-on, like lettering from packaging, stencils, or worn signage. Its texture adds a gritty, analog attitude that suggests workwear, DIY print, and industrial authenticity rather than polish or delicacy.
The design appears intended to combine a condensed, space-saving silhouette with a deliberately imperfect, inked texture. It aims for strong impact and an industrial, stamped character while preserving straightforward sans construction for clear letter recognition.
The narrow set width and heavy color create strong word shapes at display sizes, while the distressed perimeter can visually fill in at very small sizes or on low-resolution output. The irregular edge texture appears consistent across the set, helping long lines of text keep a cohesive, printed feel.
