A slanted, brush-script style with thick, pressure-driven strokes and tapered terminals. The outlines show deliberate roughness and ink-break texture, with occasional chunky blobs and uneven edges that mimic dry brush or worn printing. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed, with a lively baseline and loose rhythm that keeps counters and joins irregular but readable at display sizes. Uppercase forms lean toward simplified brush caps, while lowercase maintains a quick handwritten flow with restrained loops and a modest, compact x-height.
Best suited for posters, headlines, logo lockups, and short callouts where the brush texture can be appreciated. It also fits packaging, apparel graphics, album/cover art, and social media promos that benefit from a rough, expressive script voice. For long text or small sizes, the distressed edges and dense strokes may reduce clarity.
The overall tone is raw and energetic, suggesting speed, attitude, and an unpolished handmade feel. Its distressed texture adds a gritty, streetwise character that reads as contemporary and informal rather than refined or traditional.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-painted lettering with a deliberately weathered surface, balancing bold brush presence with an intentionally imperfect finish for impactful display typography.
Texture is consistent across the set, creating a cohesive “inked” surface while still allowing individual glyphs to feel slightly varied. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with angled strokes and soft curvature that match the letterforms.
