This is a condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and subtly irregular edges that give it a stamped or cut-out feel. Strokes are thick with moderate contrast and mostly squared terminals softened by rounding, producing sturdy, blocky silhouettes. Counters are relatively tight and the rhythm is compact, while widths vary by letter in a way that keeps the texture lively and slightly uneven.
It works well for posters, packaging, labels, and branding marks that need a condensed, high-impact voice. The texture and tight counters make it especially effective at larger sizes for headlines, subheads, and short display lines; for longer passages, it’s better reserved for emphasis or pull quotes where its grain and weight can read clearly.
The overall tone is punchy and informal, with a slightly rugged, handmade energy. Its compact, heavy presence reads confident and a bit mischievous, suited to attention-grabbing headlines rather than quiet, neutral typography.
The design appears intended to deliver strong impact in limited horizontal space while retaining a human, tactile character. The rounded-rectangular construction keeps it friendly and cohesive, while the roughened outline adds personality and a printed, analog flavor.
The sample text shows strong presence and consistent letter color, with occasional edge wobble that reads as intentional distress rather than geometric precision. Numerals match the same compact, heavy construction, maintaining a cohesive display texture across letters and figures.
