A chunky, hand-drawn sans with thick strokes and visibly rough, brush-like edges. Letterforms are rounded and slightly wobbly, with uneven terminals and small interior scuffs that mimic dry ink or worn printing. Proportions vary across glyphs, giving the alphabet an informal rhythm, while counters stay fairly open for a distressed display style. The numerals match the same heavy, sketchy construction and irregular contouring.
Best suited for short, bold statements where texture is a feature—posters, packaging, stickers, merch graphics, and social headlines. It works well at medium to large sizes where the distressed edge and inky artifacts remain clear, and it can add a handmade note to branding that aims for an informal or crafty voice.
The overall tone is casual and expressive, like marker or brush lettering used for quick signage. Its distressed texture adds a gritty, crafty feel that reads as energetic and a bit mischievous rather than polished or corporate.
Likely designed to emulate quick brush/marker lettering with a deliberately imperfect print texture, prioritizing personality and tactile ink character over strict geometric consistency. The varying widths and roughened contours appear intended to keep repeated text feeling lively and handmade.
Stroke texture is not purely outline-rough; it includes subtle internal streaking and edge chatter that becomes more apparent at larger sizes. Round characters (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) emphasize a hand-inked swirl, while straight strokes maintain slight curvature and taper for an organic, drawn-on-paper effect.
