A hand-drawn print style with brushy, uneven strokes and visibly rough edges that create a lightly distressed texture. Letterforms are mostly upright with a narrow overall footprint, but widths and counters vary from glyph to glyph, giving the set an intentionally inconsistent rhythm. Terminals tend to be blunt and slightly flared, with occasional wobble in stems and arcs that reads like marker or dry-brush lettering. The lowercase is compact with small bowls and a relatively short x-height, and the numerals follow the same irregular, drawn-in-one-go construction.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its hand-rendered texture can stay crisp: posters, titles, packaging, labels, and cover designs. It can work for punchy subheads and pull quotes, but extended body copy may feel busy due to the irregular outlines and compact lowercase.
The font conveys a casual, handmade attitude—imperfect in a deliberate way that feels approachable and a bit mischievous. Its rough texture and jittery contours can also suggest eerie, storybook, or DIY poster energy, depending on setting and color.
Designed to emulate informal hand-lettered print made with a brush or marker, prioritizing personality and tactile texture over strict typographic regularity. The goal appears to be a lively, imperfect look that adds character to display typography and branding accents.
Texture is consistent across the set, with thicker patches and lighter spots that mimic real media pressure changes rather than geometric modulation. The most successful results come from embracing the organic variation rather than trying to make it look mechanically uniform.
