A heavy, compact sans with chunky strokes and rounded corners, built from simple, slightly condensed letterforms. Edges show deliberate wear and ink-break artifacts, with small chips, dents, and uneven fills that mimic rough printing or stamped paint. Counters are generally open and uncomplicated, while joins and terminals lean toward blunt, softened shapes that keep the texture from feeling sharp. Spacing and widths vary modestly across characters, reinforcing an imperfect, handmade rhythm in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where its texture can contribute to the message—posters, event titles, packaging callouts, brand marks, and apparel graphics. It also works well for short punchy copy such as labels, signage, and social graphics where a bold, worn print aesthetic is desired.
The texture and bold silhouettes give a tough, street-level energy with a friendly, humorous edge. It reads like something printed fast on paper, stenciled on packaging, or pulled from a well-worn poster, balancing retro charm with gritty attitude.
Likely designed to deliver an approachable display voice that feels printed, aged, and tactile rather than digitally perfect. The goal appears to be strong impact at a glance while adding character through controlled distressing and slightly irregular construction.
The distressed pattern is consistent across the set, appearing in both exterior contours and interior cutouts, so the roughness feels intentional rather than accidental. Because the texture becomes more noticeable at larger sizes, the face tends to look cleaner from a distance and more characterful up close.
