A condensed, all-caps–friendly display face with heavy strokes and a compact footprint. Letterforms are built from simple, squared-off geometry with slightly rounded corners, producing a sturdy, poster-like silhouette. A consistent distressed texture appears along edges and within strokes, mimicking worn ink or imperfect printing while keeping counters generally open and legible. Uppercase forms read strong and uniform, while the lowercase is similarly compact with straightforward, utilitarian shapes and minimal modulation.
Best suited for display settings where a strong, compact headline is needed—posters, flyers, packaging callouts, badges, and signage. It also works well for themed graphics that benefit from a worn, tactile print impression, but is less appropriate for long-form text where the texture could become visually fatiguing.
The overall tone is gritty and workmanlike, suggesting printed ephemera, workshop labeling, and weathered signage. The rough texture adds a lived-in, analog feel that reads energetic and no-nonsense rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow width while adding instant atmosphere through controlled distressing. It prioritizes bold, readable silhouettes and a consistent rough-print texture to evoke utilitarian, vintage-leaning graphic applications.
Spacing appears tight and efficient, supporting stacked headlines and short bursts of copy. The texture is present at all sizes shown, so the face communicates character immediately, especially in black-on-white applications.
