A condensed, brush-drawn display face with thick, high-contrast strokes and visibly roughened edges. Letterforms are built from tapered verticals and quick, rounded joins, with uneven stroke terminals that suggest dry ink or a worn marker. Counters are small and sometimes partially pinched, and spacing is slightly irregular, reinforcing a handmade rhythm. The lowercase is compact with a relatively small x-height, and the numerals share the same inked, textured construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headings, packaging callouts, and branding moments that benefit from a handmade, worn-ink personality. It works particularly well when set large, where the rough edges and tapered strokes remain clearly visible.
The overall tone is energetic and informal, combining a gritty, distressed texture with a friendly hand-lettered feel. It reads like quick signage or a sketchbook headline—imperfect by design and intentionally human.
The design appears intended to mimic fast, confident brush lettering with a deliberately distressed finish, delivering a compact display voice that feels both handcrafted and rugged.
Texture appears consistent across the alphabet, with repeated edge chatter and occasional interior speckling that helps maintain the distressed effect at larger sizes. The condensed proportions and tight counters make the design feel punchy, but the rough stroke detail becomes a defining feature of the silhouette.
