A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broad, blunt terminals. Strokes are thick and fairly even, but edges show intentional wobble and slight chipping that creates a stamped/rough-ink texture. Counters are small and soft-cornered, curves are squarish and superelliptical, and joins stay sturdy rather than sharp. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, giving the rhythm an irregular, handmade cadence while remaining highly legible at display sizes.
Best used for posters, headlines, packaging, and bold branding where texture and character are desirable. It works well on merchandise, labels, and social graphics that benefit from a handmade or stamped look, and it can add emphasis in short callouts or section titles when paired with a calmer text face.
The font feels bold and approachable, with a casual DIY energy. Its roughened outlines read as tactile and imperfect—more like inked lettering or a worn stamp than a polished geometric sans—adding warmth and personality. The overall tone is playful and a bit gritty, suited to expressive, attention-grabbing typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, handcrafted feel—combining rounded superelliptical structure with deliberately rough edges to suggest print texture and human touch. It prioritizes presence and personality over refined precision, aiming for expressive display typography.
Uppercase forms are blocky and confident, while lowercase maintains the same chunky mass with simple, single-storey shapes where expected. Numerals are equally stout and rounded, matching the textured silhouette and keeping a consistent visual color in mixed text.
