An expressive, hand-drawn sans with brush-pen construction and visibly uneven edges. Strokes taper and swell with a dry-ink texture, producing a lightly broken contour and occasional blobby terminals. Letterforms are slightly slanted with lively, irregular rhythm; bowls are loose and open, and joins feel sketched rather than engineered. Overall spacing is informal, with small variations in width and alignment that reinforce the human, handwritten character.
Well-suited to headlines and short callouts where a handmade, roughened voice is desirable—posters, music and entertainment graphics, craft or indie packaging, and social media titles. It works best when you want immediacy and texture rather than strict typographic uniformity.
The font feels spontaneous and gritty, like quick marker lettering on paper or a rough print pulled from an inked sketch. Its texture and motion read as candid and energetic rather than polished, giving it a friendly, street-level attitude. The tone lands between playful and raw, with an artsy DIY edge.
Likely designed to capture the look of quick brush lettering with natural imperfections—tapered strokes, dry-ink texture, and irregular spacing—to convey a distressed, hand-crafted feel in display settings.
At larger sizes the texture and tapering add character, while in longer passages the irregular edges and fluctuating stroke density become more visually prominent. Numerals match the same hand-rendered logic, with open, slightly wobbly forms that keep the set cohesive.
