A slanted, brush-script style with a dry, textured stroke that produces broken edges and occasional internal speckling. Letterforms are built from quick, calligraphic movements with tapered entries and exits, modest stroke modulation, and a slightly condensed overall footprint. The baseline and stroke rhythm feel intentionally irregular, with varying join sharpness and pressure changes that keep the texture lively while maintaining recognizable, consistent shapes across the set.
Best suited for short, prominent text where the brush texture can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, social graphics, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for quotes or signage-style lines, but the distressed stroke and brisk rhythm make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The font conveys an informal, human tone—like a fast marker or brush pen on absorbent paper. Its distressed texture adds a slightly rugged, worn-in feel, balancing friendliness with a bit of grit and momentum.
Designed to replicate the look of quick hand lettering made with a dry brush or marker, capturing pressure changes and imperfect ink coverage. The goal appears to be an authentic, energetic script with a tactile, printed-wear character rather than a polished calligraphic finish.
Uppercase forms read as simplified, script-like caps with open counters and occasional looped construction, while lowercase letters lean toward single-storey, handwritten shapes. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with angled terminals and uneven ink density that helps the overall set feel cohesive.
