A rough, brush-ink display face with heavy strokes and intentionally irregular edges. Forms are rounded at the core but broken up by ragged terminals, nicks, and dry-brush texture that creates a lively, uneven outline. Stroke widths fluctuate within letters, counters are often slightly lopsided, and spacing feels hand-set, with some glyphs reading wider or tighter than neighbors. The italic slant and bouncy baseline-like rhythm add motion, while simplified construction keeps silhouettes strong at larger sizes.
Best suited to short display settings such as posters, headlines, social graphics, and promotional typography where texture and character are assets. It can work well for album art, streetwear-inspired branding, and packaging that benefits from a hand-painted, worn-in look. For longer passages, it’s more effective in brief bursts (pull quotes, labels, or subheads) where the distressed edges don’t overwhelm readability.
The overall tone is energetic and scrappy, with a DIY attitude that feels informal and expressive. Its distressed brush texture suggests spontaneity and grit, balancing humor with a slightly rebellious edge.
The design appears intended to capture the look of fast brush lettering reproduced with imperfect ink coverage and rough printing. It prioritizes personality, motion, and tactile texture over strict geometric consistency, aiming for an expressive, handmade display voice.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent brush treatment, with single-story, handwritten-style lowercase forms and compact interior spaces in several letters. Numerals match the same roughened finish, making mixed alphanumeric settings feel cohesive. The texture is prominent enough that very small sizes may lose clarity as counters and fine notches fill in.
