A rough, inked display face with visibly uneven contours and distressed edges that mimic dry-brush or worn printing. Strokes show pronounced contrast, with heavier verticals and lighter connecting curves, and a generally upright stance. Counters are open but slightly irregular, and terminals often end in blunt, frayed shapes rather than clean cuts. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively, hand-rendered rhythm; lowercase forms read compact with a relatively short x-height and slightly bouncy spacing.
Best suited for short text in posters, headlines, packaging, and branding where texture is an asset. It can also work for book covers and themed event materials that want a handmade or vintage-printed feel; for longer passages, it’s most effective when used sparingly as a display accent.
The overall tone feels handmade and tactile—more like stamped or brush-painted lettering than polished typography. Its irregularities add warmth and personality, leaning toward rustic, craft, and storybook moods while still reading confidently at display sizes.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, characterful display voice that suggests hand-inked or weathered print, adding texture and personality without fully sacrificing legibility.
Caps carry a strong, poster-like presence while the lowercase introduces more casual, quirky details (notably in curved letters and diagonals). Numerals follow the same distressed treatment, with simplified shapes and softened corners that keep the set visually cohesive.
