A chunky, hand-drawn print with brushy, irregular strokes and visibly uneven edges. Letterforms lean toward rounded bowls and soft corners, with simplified constructions and occasional angular cuts that preserve a drawn-on-paper feel. Stroke endings are blunt and slightly ragged, and spacing/sidebearings vary from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, inconsistent rhythm. Counters are generally open and large, supporting legibility despite the intentionally rough outline.
Best suited to display sizes where the textured edges and hand-rendered rhythm can be appreciated—posters, packaging, labels, book covers, and casual branding. It can also work for short pull quotes or headings in editorial layouts when a relaxed, handcrafted voice is desired.
The overall tone is warm and informal, evoking marker or dry-brush signage and doodled titles. Its irregularity reads as approachable and human, with a slightly rugged, craft-like character that keeps it from feeling polished or corporate.
Likely designed to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered brush printing: bold presence, approachable shapes, and a deliberately imperfect outline that communicates authenticity and informality.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive handmade DNA, with broad proportions and a steady, dark color on the page. Numerals follow the same drawn texture and friendly roundness, making mixed alphanumerics feel consistent in headlines and short lines.
