A chunky, hand-drawn italic with brush-like strokes and visibly irregular contours. The letterforms have rounded, blunt terminals and a slightly wobbly baseline rhythm, with textured edges that feel like ink dragged across rough paper. Counters are generally open and simple, and the shapes favor compact, sometimes uneven construction (notably in diagonals and joins), giving each glyph a distinctive, printed-by-hand character.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings where the texture can be appreciated—posters, packaging, headlines, and promotional graphics. It can also work for brand accents or pull quotes when a handcrafted, slightly rough tone is desired, while very small sizes may lose some of the edge detail.
The overall tone is casual and energetic, with a gritty, DIY warmth. Its rough inking and lively slant suggest handmade posters, zines, and informal labeling rather than polished editorial typography.
The design appears intended to mimic bold brush lettering with worn printing artifacts, balancing legibility with a deliberately imperfect, tactile surface. It aims to deliver an expressive, handmade look that feels personal and energetic in display use.
Texture is consistent across the set, with small variations in stroke width and edge breakup that read as intentional distress rather than noise. Numerals match the same brushy, cut-paper feel, keeping a cohesive voice across letters and figures.
