A heavy, brush-like handwritten style with a consistent forward slant and compact, rounded forms. Strokes are thick and slightly uneven, showing natural pressure changes and subtly ragged edges that suggest wet ink or a marker. Counters are relatively tight, terminals are blunt and soft, and overall spacing feels lively rather than mechanically uniform, giving the alphabet a hand-drawn rhythm across both capitals and lowercase.
This font is best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and social media graphics where texture and personality are desirable. It can work for punchy subheads and quotes, but the dense strokes and tight counters make it less ideal for long passages at small sizes.
The tone is informal and upbeat, with an energetic, street-poster attitude. Its bold, inky texture reads as expressive and personal, conveying motion and spontaneity while still staying broadly legible at display sizes.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of bold hand lettering—fast, expressive, and slightly rough—while maintaining enough consistency to function as a usable display face across letters and numerals.
Capitals have a simplified, punchy silhouette and sit comfortably alongside the lowercase, which leans toward compact, single-storey shapes and quick joins in the stroke logic (without becoming fully connected). Numerals match the same chunky brush treatment, keeping a cohesive, punchy color in mixed text.
