A condensed, heavy display face with a hand-drawn print construction and a noticeable backward slant. Strokes are thick and slightly uneven, with rough, chiseled edges and occasional notches that suggest dry-brush or marker texture. Letterforms keep a mostly consistent cap height and x-height, but widths and interior counters vary, creating an animated, bouncy rhythm. Terminals tend to be blunt and irregular rather than crisply geometric, and curves are slightly squashed to fit the narrow proportions.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as posters, titles, splashy headlines, packaging callouts, and expressive signage. It can work for brief editorial blurbs or pull quotes when set with generous tracking and line spacing, but it is not optimized for long-form reading.
The overall tone is mischievous and informal, like handmade signage or a playful comic headline. Its rough finish and jaunty slant give it a lively, slightly chaotic energy that feels approachable rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver an energetic, handmade display voice—combining condensed, high-impact shapes with rough contours and a backward-leaning posture to create instant personality and motion.
The texture becomes more apparent at larger sizes, where the ragged contours read as intentional character. In denser text, the narrow set and heavy strokes can make counters feel tight, so spacing and size choices will strongly affect legibility.
