A compact, hand-drawn print style with thick, brush-like strokes and visibly irregular edges that mimic a dry brush or marker on paper. Letterforms are mostly upright with slightly uneven stroke pressure, producing subtle contrast and a lively, handmade rhythm. Shapes lean rounded and simplified, with occasional blunt terminals, soft corners, and small idiosyncrasies in bowls and counters that keep the texture consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Spacing and widths feel organically varied, reinforcing the informal, sketched character while maintaining clear silhouettes.
Works well for short headlines, posters, and social graphics where a handmade voice is desirable. It also suits packaging accents, labels, and informal branding systems that benefit from a brushy, personal texture. For longer text, it’s best used in larger sizes and with comfortable line spacing to keep the lively shapes readable.
The overall tone is friendly and energetic, with a crafty, handmade feel that reads as approachable rather than formal. The brush texture adds warmth and a bit of grit, giving headlines a casual, indie sensibility.
Likely designed to capture the spontaneity of quick hand lettering with a brush or marker, emphasizing texture and personality over strict geometric consistency. The goal appears to be an informal display face that feels human, energetic, and immediately attention-getting.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, drawn-by-hand logic, and the numerals follow the same chunky, brushed construction for consistent color in mixed copy. The textured edges and compact proportions create strong presence at display sizes, while the organic irregularities are part of the intended charm.
