A rough, hand-rendered serif with uneven contours and visibly distressed edges that mimic dry-brush or worn ink on paper. Strokes show irregular thickness, with blunted terminals and occasional nicks that create a broken, tactile silhouette. The forms are generally upright with straightforward construction, but each glyph carries small variations that make spacing and rhythm feel intentionally imperfect and lively. Uppercase shapes are sturdy and compact, while lowercase retains a simple, readable structure with a slightly softened, hand-cut look.
Best suited to display roles such as posters, title treatments, packaging, and label-style graphics where the rough outline can be appreciated. It also works for short editorial headlines or pull quotes when a handcrafted, worn print flavor is desired; for long body text, the textured edges are more effective at moderate-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is handmade and weathered, suggesting printed ephemera, DIY signage, and aged packaging. Its imperfect texture adds character and approachability, balancing a rustic grit with a light, playful energy.
Designed to deliver a classic serif foundation with a deliberately degraded, handmade surface—evoking imperfect printing, aging, or brushy marker strokes to add instant atmosphere and authenticity to modern layouts.
The distressed treatment is consistent across letters and numerals, so the texture reads as a deliberate stylistic layer rather than isolated damage. At smaller sizes the edge noise may visually fill in, while at larger sizes the irregular outline becomes a prominent graphic feature.
