A condensed, hand-rendered sans with slightly uneven stroke widths and a dry-brush/inked texture that creates rough, torn-looking edges. Forms are mostly upright with tall proportions and simple, open counters, while terminals tend to look blunted or frayed rather than crisply cut. Spacing and widths vary subtly from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively, imperfect rhythm that still reads clearly in continuous text.
Best suited to display settings where texture and personality are desirable: posters, event flyers, album art, book or film titling, and branded packaging. It can work for short bursts of copy or pull quotes, but its distressed edges and tight build are most effective in headlines and larger sizes.
The overall tone feels handmade and gritty, like lettering pulled from a worn poster, zine, or stamped packaging. Its irregular edges and narrow build add urgency and attitude, balancing playfulness with a lightly abrasive, street-print character.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact, readable display face with a deliberately distressed, hand-inked surface—evoking imperfect printing, marker lettering, or weathered signage while maintaining a consistent alphabet for practical layout use.
The texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, so the distressed effect reads as an intentional surface treatment rather than random noise. The condensed proportions help it stay compact, but the rough contouring becomes more prominent as sizes increase.
