A heavy, brush-driven italic with compact, chunky letterforms and visibly irregular edges. Strokes show a dry-brush texture and uneven pressure, creating slightly ragged contours, occasional notches, and organic counters. The baseline and slant feel consistent, but individual shapes vary in width and silhouette, reinforcing a drawn, inked rhythm. Terminals are blunt and smeared rather than cleanly cut, and the figures match the letters with the same bold, textured construction.
Best suited to short, bold applications such as posters, headlines, social graphics, packaging callouts, and merchandise where texture is a feature. It also works well for playful branding accents and event promo copy, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the brush details remain legible.
The overall tone is lively and informal, with a street-poster, marker-on-paper attitude. Its rough texture and forward lean add urgency and motion, giving text a friendly but slightly rebellious edge. It feels human, spontaneous, and attention-seeking rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to mimic fast, confident hand-lettering with a thick brush or marker, prioritizing impact and character over refinement. The goal appears to be a punchy, energetic display voice that feels handmade and immediate.
In longer text the dense weight and texture create strong color and high impact, while the brush noise can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. The set reads best when given a bit of breathing room, as the irregular edges and variable silhouettes add visual buzz and personality.
