A chunky, brush-like display face with rounded underlying shapes and visibly irregular contours. Strokes are heavy and often taper or flare slightly, with ragged edges, small notches, and occasional ink-like breakups that create a worn, hand-rendered texture. Terminals tend to be blunt and uneven, counters are generous, and overall letterforms keep a friendly, simplified structure while embracing inconsistencies in stroke boundaries and width. Spacing reads open and readable at larger sizes, with an intentionally imperfect rhythm across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture is a feature: posters, headlines, packaging, merch, and promotional graphics. It also works well for playful branding moments and social graphics, especially when paired with a simpler text face for longer reading.
The tone is informal and energetic, with a mischievous, DIY sensibility. Its distressed brush texture suggests spontaneity and a crafted, analog feel rather than polished precision, giving text a lively, characterful voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable brush-lettered look with deliberate distressing, balancing strong silhouettes with roughened edges to evoke hand-made, printed, or stamped character.
Lowercase forms remain straightforward and legible, while details like rough shoulders, uneven joins, and scratchy interior artifacts add texture without collapsing the silhouettes. Numerals follow the same hand-cut logic, staying bold and attention-getting with slightly varying stroke weight and contour waviness.
