A slanted, brush-driven handwritten print with thick, irregular strokes and a dry, textured edge that suggests quick marker or brush lettering. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed in feel, with variable stroke expansion within each glyph and a lively, uneven baseline. Shapes lean angular with pointed joins and occasional wedge-like terminals, while counters stay relatively open for a dark, punchy silhouette. Overall spacing and widths vary naturally, reinforcing the hand-drawn rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where texture and motion are an asset—posters, headlines, apparel graphics, album art, event flyers, and bold packaging callouts. It can work for short promotional copy or pull quotes, but the heavy texture and irregularity are most effective when given room and set at larger sizes.
The font conveys immediacy and motion, with a gritty, street-poster energy that feels informal and attention-seeking. Its rough texture and brisk slant give it a dynamic, rebellious tone, while the handwritten irregularities keep it friendly and approachable rather than rigid.
Designed to emulate fast, confident brush lettering in an unconnected print style, prioritizing personality, impact, and a handmade feel over strict uniformity. The goal appears to be a bold, energetic voice that adds grit and movement to contemporary display typography.
Capitals are assertive and graphic, reading well as display forms, while lowercase maintains a scribbled consistency suited to short bursts of text. Numerals are similarly brushy and bold, with intentionally uneven outlines that add character at larger sizes.
