A chunky, brush-mark display face with compact proportions and a consistently heavy stroke that shows visible texture and frayed edges. Letterforms lean slightly and feel drawn in quick, confident strokes, with irregular terminals and mild wobble in verticals and bowls. Counters are relatively tight and shapes are simplified, producing strong silhouettes that hold up well at larger sizes despite the intentionally uneven outlines.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and social graphics where texture and personality are an asset. It also works well for labels, stickers, and event materials that benefit from a handmade, craft-forward feel; for long passages, the heavy texture can become visually dense.
The overall tone is informal and energetic, with a handmade personality that feels approachable and a bit rough-around-the-edges. Its texture and relaxed rhythm suggest a crafty, spontaneous voice rather than a polished corporate one.
This design appears intended to mimic bold hand-painted or marker lettering, emphasizing immediacy and tactile texture over geometric precision. The goal is high-impact readability with an expressive, imperfect outline that communicates informality and warmth.
Uppercase forms read bold and poster-like, while the lowercase stays simple and friendly with single-storey shapes and rounded, brushy joins. Numerals follow the same painted logic, with slightly inconsistent widths that add to the hand-rendered charm.
