A heavy, all-caps-forward sans with broad, rounded curves and blunt terminals, set on sturdy proportions and a steady, workmanlike rhythm. Strokes are mostly monolinear with modest optical modulation, and counters are compact, giving letters a dense, blocky presence. Subtle roughness and speckling appear within and along the letterforms, suggesting worn ink or printed texture rather than clean digital edges. Lowercase follows the same sturdy construction with simple, closed forms and minimal calligraphic influence; numerals match the weight and roundness for consistent color in text and display.
Well-suited for bold headlines, posters, and short statements where a gritty texture can carry mood. It also fits packaging and labels that aim for an industrial, vintage, or workwear aesthetic, and can be effective for apparel graphics and signage where strong shapes and high ink coverage are desirable.
The overall tone is tough and practical, with a worn, shop-floor character that reads as vintage and industrial. The texture adds grit and tactility, pushing the voice toward rugged authenticity rather than polished minimalism.
Likely designed to deliver a stout, high-impact sans with a built-in worn print feel, balancing legibility with a tactile, timeworn surface. The goal appears to be a dependable display workhorse that brings instant grit without needing additional effects.
Round letters like O/C/G and the bowls in B/P show generous curvature paired with tight apertures, creating a compact silhouette. The distressed artifacts are consistent enough to feel intentional and repeatable, but restrained so the letterforms remain clear at display sizes.
