A lively, hand-drawn print style with angular, wedge-like strokes and sharp terminals. Letterforms lean on straight segments and faceted curves, giving rounds a slightly squared, cut-paper feel. Stroke thickness varies within and between letters, with visible wobble and uneven joins that create an intentionally rough rhythm. Spacing and widths fluctuate notably across glyphs, reinforcing an organic, sketched texture while keeping silhouettes clear at display sizes.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture and attitude are assets, such as posters, titles, packaging accents, zines, and album/cover graphics. It can also work for themed UI labels or event branding when a hand-crafted, slightly abrasive voice is desired; for long reading, its irregularity will be more fatiguing than a smoother print hand.
The overall tone feels mischievous and energetic, with a slightly gritty, punk-like edge. Its scratchy contours and spiky corners read as informal and expressive, suggesting handmade signage, doodles, or stylized fantasy/alt-culture lettering rather than polished editorial typography.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of a quick marker or brush sketch, balancing recognizability with expressive roughness. Its faceted shapes and variable widths prioritize personality and visual momentum over strict consistency, creating a distinctive hand-drawn signature for bold, character-driven typography.
Capitals are assertive and open, while lowercase forms stay simple and legible with distinctive, quirky construction. Numerals echo the same jagged, improvised geometry, keeping a cohesive voice across alphanumerics. The font’s texture comes through strongly in continuous text, where the irregular stroke rhythm creates a dynamic, animated line.
