A condensed, all-caps–friendly sans with rounded-rectangle skeletons and softly squared curves, drawn with visibly irregular, inked outlines. Strokes stay mostly monolinear, but the perimeter wobbles and thickens in places, creating a worn, stamp-like texture rather than clean geometry. Counters are simple and fairly open; joins and terminals are blunt and slightly ragged, giving letters a cut-out or dry-brush feel. Overall spacing is compact and the rhythm is lively, with small per-glyph inconsistencies that read as intentional craft.
Works best in display contexts such as posters, flyers, packaging, and editorial callouts where texture and personality are desired. It can also suit short paragraphs in larger sizes for indie branding, album artwork, or event graphics, but the distressed edges are most effective when given enough size to breathe.
The font conveys a DIY, analog attitude—part zine, part rubber-stamp—mixing friendly rounded forms with a distressed, imperfect finish. It feels informal and energetic, with a subtly mischievous tone suited to playful or gritty messaging rather than polished corporate typography.
Likely designed to blend rounded, approachable letterforms with an intentionally imperfect, printed-by-hand surface. The goal appears to be a contemporary sans that still feels tactile—like ink on paper—adding character without relying on decorative serifs or ornamental details.
In running text the texture becomes a dominant feature: the uneven edges create strong word shapes and a tactile presence, while the narrow set keeps lines tight. Numerals and capitals match the same roughened contour, supporting cohesive headlines and short bursts of copy.
