A slanted, brush-script style with connected handwriting rhythm and lively, pressure-driven strokes. Letterforms show tapered entries and exits, rounded turns, and occasional heavy terminals, with a slightly compressed overall footprint and compact counters. Edges are intentionally uneven and ink-like, producing a textured, worn impression rather than clean vector smoothness. Spacing feels natural and handwritten, with small variations in width and stroke swell that keep lines moving forward.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where the brush texture and slant can carry personality—posters, café or craft branding, packaging callouts, apparel graphics, and social media headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or titling when paired with a calmer text face for body copy.
The font reads as informal and expressive, with a gritty, analog feel reminiscent of quick marker or dry-brush lettering. Its texture adds attitude and a handcrafted immediacy, balancing friendliness with a slightly rough, street-level edge.
Likely designed to emulate fast, confident brush handwriting while adding deliberate roughness for a tactile, printed-on-paper look. The goal appears to be an expressive script that feels handmade and energetic, with enough texture to signal grit and authenticity.
Uppercase forms behave like script capitals rather than formal Roman caps, and the numerals follow the same handwritten logic with soft curves and uneven stroke endings. The overall texture is consistent across the set, so the distressed effect feels intentional and cohesive rather than incidental.
