A tall, condensed display face with thick, uniform strokes and a subtly right-leaning stance. Letterforms are built from simplified, poster-like shapes with rounded corners and occasional chiseled or notched terminals, producing an uneven, hand-cut texture. Curves are compact and tight, counters run small, and widths vary slightly from glyph to glyph, giving the line a lively, imperfect rhythm. The lowercase reads as compact with short-to-moderate ascenders/descenders relative to the overall tall caps, and the numerals share the same blunt, inked-in silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, signage, and packaging where its condensed weight can stack efficiently without losing presence. It also works well for labels, merch, and informal branding that benefits from a hand-made, slightly distressed texture.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a playful, slightly scrappy energy that feels handmade rather than engineered. Its condensed, heavy presence suggests attention-grabbing headlines, while the irregular edges add warmth and informality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint while retaining a casual, hand-drawn character. Its simplified forms and textured terminals prioritize personality and readability at display sizes over polished, text-face neutrality.
Spacing appears fairly tight and the dense black shapes can close up in smaller sizes, especially in letters with small counters. The sample text shows strong vertical rhythm and a consistent rightward motion, while the rough terminals keep it from feeling rigid or overly geometric.
