A heavy, marker-like display face with rounded, simplified letterforms and visibly uneven contours. Strokes are thick and mostly monoline, but their edges wobble and fray as if from a dry brush or saturated felt-tip on textured paper. Counters are small and irregular, terminals are blunt, and joins often swell, producing a bouncy, ink-blotted rhythm. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing an improvised, hand-rendered texture.
Best suited to short, high-impact applications such as posters, headlines, album or event artwork, apparel graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It works well where a handmade, imperfect print feel is desired and where generous size and spacing can preserve the lively texture.
The font conveys an energetic, unruly tone—casual and rebellious with a zine/DIY sensibility. Its soft, blobby shapes keep it approachable and playful, while the distressed perimeter adds grit and attitude.
This design appears intended to mimic quick hand-painted or marker lettering with naturally inconsistent ink edges, delivering a bold display voice that feels informal and tactile rather than typographically polished.
The distressed texture is built into the silhouette rather than added as a separate overlay, so the roughness reads clearly at larger sizes. At smaller sizes, tight counters and heavy weight may reduce clarity, especially in dense text.
