A compact, all-caps-and-lowercase display face with thick brush-like strokes and visibly rough, dry edges. Forms are narrow and vertically oriented, with simplified geometry and slightly uneven curves and terminals that mimic quick marker or paint application. Stroke endings taper and fray, counters stay relatively open for the weight, and overall spacing feels lively with small inconsistencies that reinforce the hand-drawn construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, labels, and social media graphics where the textured stroke can be appreciated. It can also work well for packaging or merchandise that benefits from an informal, hand-painted tone; for longer passages, larger sizes and generous line spacing help preserve clarity.
The font reads casual and expressive, with a street-poster immediacy and a slightly gritty, DIY attitude. Its texture and irregular rhythm add warmth and personality, making text feel hand-made rather than mechanically set.
Designed to capture the look of quickly painted or marker-drawn lettering in a bold, condensed footprint. The goal appears to be strong visual presence with an authentic, tactile texture and an intentionally imperfect rhythm.
Uppercase letters lean toward tall, condensed silhouettes, while lowercase maintains a straightforward print style with single-storey forms where applicable. The numerals match the same brush treatment and slightly irregular baseline presence, keeping a cohesive, handcrafted look across the set.
