A heavy, hand-drawn display face with compact, upright letterforms and a deliberately distressed edge treatment. Strokes are chunky and mostly monoline in feel, with uneven contours, nicks, and occasional interior voids that create a worn, inked-by-hand texture. Proportions are slightly condensed with lively, irregular widths across glyphs, and counters tend to be small and soft-edged, reinforcing a dense, stamp-like color on the page. The lowercase is prominent and tall relative to capitals, and the overall rhythm is energetic rather than mechanical.
Best suited for attention-grabbing display work such as posters, flyers, event promotions, album or podcast artwork, and bold packaging accents. It also works well for logos and badges where a rough, handmade character is desired, especially in short phrases or titles.
The font reads as bold and mischievous, with a DIY grit that suggests rough printing, brushy inking, or a weathered stencil impression. Its irregular edges and blotchy texture give it a casual, rebellious tone that feels more punky and playful than refined.
The design appears intended to deliver an informal, hand-printed look with built-in wear and texture, prioritizing personality and impact over pristine uniformity. Its compact shapes and heavy color aim to keep text assertive while the distressed detailing adds attitude and tactile character.
In longer lines, the strong texture becomes a key part of the voice, so spacing and size will influence clarity; the distressed details are most effective when set large enough to remain visible. The figures and punctuation share the same rugged, imperfect finish, helping headlines and short statements feel cohesive.
