A heavy, monoline letterform with irregular, eroded outlines and uneven ink spread that creates a rough, printed texture. Terminals are blunt and often slightly bulbous, with small nicks and waviness along stems and bowls that suggest worn type or distressed stamping. The shapes are simple and workmanlike with open counters and sturdy vertical emphasis, producing a steady, mechanical rhythm despite the surface noise. Numerals match the same inky, degraded contour quality and maintain a consistent, utilitarian presence alongside the letters.
Well suited to display settings where texture and attitude are desired: posters, flyers, album/mixtape artwork, editorial spreads, and packaging that wants an aged or stamped feel. It can also work for short UI labels or signage in themed designs, but the strong distress is best showcased at larger sizes or with generous spacing.
The overall tone is gritty and tactile, evoking DIY print, worn documentation, and no-frills utility. It feels blunt and industrial rather than refined, with a handmade-through-machines character that reads as rebellious and street-level.
The design appears intended to simulate battered printing—like a worn typewriter or stamped lettering—while keeping proportions consistent and legible. It prioritizes impact and tactile character over clean precision, aiming to bring an analog, distressed voice to contemporary layouts.
The distress is consistent across the set, giving long passages a mottled color and a convincingly imperfect impression. The texture is strong enough to be a defining feature, so it becomes part of the message rather than a subtle detail.
