A rough, hand-rendered print style with heavy strokes and visibly irregular contours. Letterforms show brush-like swelling and tapering with ragged edges, occasional ink blots, and slightly inconsistent stroke endings that reinforce an analog, distressed texture. Proportions are compact with tight interior spaces in some glyphs, while overall widths and sidebearings vary for a natural, non-mechanical rhythm. The lowercase is simple and legible, with a modest x-height and lively baseline wobble that reads as intentionally imperfect rather than strictly constructed.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and attitude are assets, such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, album/cover art, and zine-style graphics. It can work for brief captions or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, but the distressed detailing may reduce clarity in long passages or small UI text.
The font conveys an energetic, gritty handmade tone—casual and expressive, with a slightly rebellious, poster-like attitude. Its rough texture and uneven strokes suggest immediacy and human presence, balancing friendliness with a raw edge.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush lettering or marker-painted signage, preserving irregular edges, stroke modulation, and spacing quirks to feel authentically hand-made. Its goal is impact and personality over typographic neutrality, delivering a bold, tactile look in display typography.
In text, the heavy weight and textured edges create a strong color on the page, while the irregular spacing and blotting can become visually busy at small sizes. The numerals and capitals carry the same distressed brush character, keeping the overall voice consistent across the set.
