A chunky, marker-like face with rounded, simplified letterforms and heavily roughened contours. Strokes are thick and slightly wobbly, with ragged edges and occasional ink blots that create a worn, stamped-or-painted look. Counters tend to be small and soft, terminals are blunt, and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, producing an irregular rhythm that feels intentionally imperfect.
Best used in short, high-impact settings where texture can be appreciated—posters, album/cover art, event flyers, packaging accents, apparel graphics, and social media headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when a deliberately rough, handmade emphasis is desired.
The overall tone is energetic and DIY, with a gritty street/garage character that reads casual and expressive rather than polished. Its rough texture and bouncy shapes give it a friendly mischief—more zine and gig-poster than corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic distressed hand lettering, combining bold presence with a worn, analog texture. Its simplified shapes and consistent roughening suggest a goal of immediate, expressive display impact with a deliberately imperfect, printed-by-hand feel.
Texture is a dominant feature: edges break up frequently, and some joins show slight swelling or thinning as if from a dry brush or distressed print. The uppercase and lowercase share the same rugged construction, and numerals follow the same hand-rendered, slightly uneven proportions for a cohesive set.
