A tall, condensed handwritten print with a right-leaning posture and brush-pen texture. Strokes show clear pressure shifts with tapered entries, occasional dry-brush breakup, and slightly rough edges that keep the line lively. Forms are loosely constructed with open counters and simplified joins, mixing rounded curves (O, C) with sharper, flicked terminals and occasional angular turns. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic rhythm while keeping an overall consistent, narrow silhouette.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing text where texture and motion are desirable—posters, flyers, covers, packaging callouts, and social media graphics. It can also work for branding accents or display-level signage when a handmade, brushy voice is needed, especially at larger sizes where stroke texture can be appreciated.
The tone is informal and punchy, with a quick, confident marker feel that reads as spontaneous rather than polished. Its narrow, towering shapes and scratchy modulation give it a slightly edgy, indie character—more street-poster and notebook headline than formal script.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of fast brush lettering in an unconnected, print-like style—prioritizing gesture, contrast, and a tight vertical footprint for impactful display typography.
Capitals have an assertive, elongated presence and tend to dominate the line, while lowercase remains small and compact, creating strong vertical contrast in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same brisk, hand-drawn logic, with simple forms and energetic terminals that favor personality over strict uniformity.
