A condensed, heavy sans with chunky, rounded-rectangle construction and visibly distressed edges. Strokes are firm and mostly straight-sided, with soft corners and slightly irregular terminals that create a stamped/inked texture. Counters are compact and often partially pinched by the roughened silhouette, producing dense black shapes and a gritty rhythm. Letterforms stay upright and utilitarian, while the deliberate unevenness and wear keep the texture lively across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logos, packaging, and merch graphics where the distressed texture can be appreciated. It can also work for punchy pull quotes or section headers in editorial layouts, but the dense counters and rough edges favor display sizes over long passages.
The overall tone feels raw and workmanlike, like type made from worn stencils or a well-used rubber stamp. Its distressed finish suggests analog printing, grit, and a slightly aggressive energy that reads as urban and industrial rather than polished.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, attention-grabbing sans voice while simulating the imperfections of analog reproduction—wear, ink bleed, and surface abrasion—without abandoning a compact, geometric backbone.
The texture is consistent across the set, with deliberate edge chatter and occasional small notches that mimic ink spread and abrasion. The condensed proportions and dark mass make spacing and counters feel tight, which amplifies impact at larger sizes.
