An expressive, brush-pen style with noticeably textured edges and uneven stroke boundaries that mimic dry ink on rough paper. Strokes are thick and assertive with subtly tapered terminals, creating a lively rhythm and a slightly forward-leaning, handwritten flow. Letterforms show natural variation in width and stroke shape, with simplified structures that stay legible while retaining a spontaneous, imperfect finish.
Best suited to display settings where texture and gesture are part of the message—posters, cover art, café or streetwear branding, and bold editorial callouts. It can also work for labels and packaging that benefit from a handcrafted, rugged tone, especially at larger sizes where the distressed edges read clearly.
The overall tone feels informal and visceral—more like quick marker or brush lettering than a polished script. Its rough texture and energetic movement suggest urgency, attitude, and a DIY sensibility, lending a human, unfiltered voice to headlines and short statements.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brush lettering with a deliberately weathered finish, balancing legibility with a raw, tactile surface. The goal appears to be a strong, attention-grabbing voice that feels handmade and slightly rough around the edges rather than refined.
The texture is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive distressed print effect rather than random noise. Spacing and joins feel intentionally loose, which supports an expressive look but can build visual density in longer passages.
