A slanted, brush-drawn print style with compact proportions and a lively baseline. Strokes show pronounced pressure changes and rough, dry-brush texture, with frayed terminals and occasional ink breaks that create a hand-made rhythm. Letterforms are mostly unconnected and slightly irregular, mixing sharp wedge-like entries with rounded bowls to keep the silhouette active. Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is dense, giving short words strong impact even as details stay intentionally imperfect.
Well-suited for short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, event headlines, album or playlist art, and expressive packaging callouts. It can also work for apparel graphics and social media hero text where texture and energy are desirable; for longer paragraphs, it’s best used in small doses due to its dense stroke texture and condensed spacing.
The font communicates urgency and motion, with a gritty, street-level confidence. Its textured brush marks feel informal and human, leaning toward edgy, poster-like expressiveness rather than refined calligraphy.
Designed to mimic fast, confident brush lettering with visible texture and pressure, prioritizing personality and momentum over precision. The intent appears to be an impactful display hand that feels spontaneous, gritty, and contemporary.
Uppercase forms read as punchy and headline-oriented, while the lowercase remains compact and quick, reinforcing a sketchy marker/brush note feel. Numerals carry the same angled, textured stroke behavior, keeping a cohesive look across alphanumerics.
