A heavy, hand-rendered sans with irregular, brush-like outlines and visibly rough edges that create a stamped/inked texture. Strokes are thick with occasional narrow pinches and bulbous terminals, producing an uneven rhythm and a lively silhouette. Counters are generally open but wobble slightly, and the overall spacing and character widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, non-mechanical feel. Numerals and caps read clearly at display sizes, with rounded forms and small notches and flats that suggest dry-brush or worn print.
Best suited to display applications where texture is an asset: posters, headlines, album/playlist covers, apparel graphics, packaging callouts, and event flyers. It can work for short bursts of copy (pull quotes, labels, menu section headers) when set with comfortable spacing and sufficient size.
The font conveys a gritty, handmade attitude that feels casual and energetic rather than refined. Its rough texture and bouncy proportions evoke DIY posters, zines, and vintage screen-print aesthetics, with a friendly edge that can also lean quirky or rebellious depending on color and layout.
The design appears intended to mimic imperfect ink on paper—somewhere between a brush-lettered sign and a worn rubber stamp—delivering a strong, attention-grabbing voice without needing additional effects. Its irregular contours and variable character widths prioritize expressive impact and tactile character over a polished, typographic uniformity.
In longer lines, the texture becomes a consistent “noise” across the word shapes, so it benefits from generous leading and moderate tracking to keep the dark mass from feeling crowded. The distressed detailing is strongest along outer contours, which helps preserve letter recognition while still delivering a rugged surface.
