A heavy, rounded display face with irregular, distressed contours that feel inked or worn. Strokes are thick and uneven, with softened corners and small bite-like notches along the edges that create a textured silhouette. Counters are compact and sometimes pinched, and terminals tend to end in blunt, slightly ragged shapes. Proportions vary subtly from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a handmade rhythm while staying broadly consistent in weight and stance.
Best suited to short, bold applications such as posters, headlines, badges, packaging, and merch graphics where the distressed edge can be appreciated. It also works well for event promos, retro-leaning or outdoorsy branding, and playful labels that need an attention-grabbing, tactile feel. For longer copy, it’s most effective in short bursts or pull quotes at larger sizes.
The overall tone is bold and unruly, mixing a friendly, cartoonish roundness with a gritty, weathered surface. It reads as casual and energetic, with a deliberately imperfect texture that suggests rough printing, aged signage, or DIY craft aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a deliberately rough, worn finish, combining rounded, approachable letterforms with distressed contours for a tactile, printed look. It prioritizes personality and texture over pristine neutrality, aiming to evoke handmade, stamped, or aged production.
The texture is prominent even at larger sizes, where the rough perimeter becomes a defining feature. At smaller sizes, the tight counters and distressed edges can reduce clarity, especially in dense text, so it benefits from generous sizing and spacing. The numerals match the same chunky, worn character for cohesive headline use.
