A chunky, brush-like text face with visibly irregular contours and soft, worn edges that mimic uneven inking or rough printing. Strokes are heavy and slightly tapered, with subtle wobble and a consistent rightward slant. Counters tend to be rounded and somewhat tight, and terminals look blunted or frayed rather than crisply cut. Overall spacing feels lively and slightly inconsistent, reinforcing an organic, hand-rendered rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture is a feature: posters, packaging, labels, apparel graphics, album art, and punchy headlines. It can also work for quotes or blurbs when set with generous size and spacing, letting the distressed edges remain legible.
The texture and casual slant give it a friendly, imperfect energy—part handmade sign, part distressed print. It reads as approachable and playful, with a gritty edge that adds attitude without becoming chaotic.
Designed to capture the look of hand-painted or heavily inked lettering with natural imperfections, delivering a tactile, analog feel. The goal appears to be characterful display typography that brings instant personality and a lightly weathered texture to modern layouts.
Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy, while lowercase maintains simple, single-storey constructions and rounded bowls that keep the voice informal. The numerals share the same brushy wear and soft edges, helping mixed text and headline numerals feel cohesive.
