A heavy, rounded sans with thick strokes and softly squared curves. The outlines are intentionally irregular, with slightly rough, wobbly edges that mimic ink spread or hand-cut shapes, creating a textured silhouette without internal detailing. Counters stay relatively open for the weight, while joins and terminals appear blunted and inconsistently finished, giving a lively, handmade rhythm. Proportions are compact and sturdy, and the overall color on the page is dense and emphatic.
Best suited to short, prominent copy where its bold presence and roughened edges can be appreciated—posters, headlines, labels, packaging, and expressive branding. It can also work for playful signage and social graphics, especially where a handmade or craft aesthetic is desired.
The font conveys an informal, approachable tone with a crafty, DIY character. Its roughened contours add warmth and personality, suggesting something tactile and human rather than polished or corporate. The overall impression is energetic and fun, with a slightly gritty, poster-like punch.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, friendly sans voice with deliberate imperfections that simulate hand-rendered printing. The goal appears to be high impact with an organic, tactile finish that adds personality to simple, rounded letterforms.
In running text the texture becomes more apparent, creating a mottled edge that reads as deliberate distressing rather than clean geometry. The numerals match the same chunky construction and retain clear, simple forms suited to attention-grabbing settings.
