A heavy, hand-drawn print style with compact proportions and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes look brush- or marker-made, with visibly rough edges, ink texture, and small weight fluctuations that create a slightly distressed silhouette. Counters are tight and sometimes partially closed, terminals are blunt, and joins feel organic rather than geometric, giving the alphabet a punchy, compact color on the page. Overall spacing is fairly tight, with small variations in glyph widths that reinforce the drawn-by-hand character.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, social graphics, packaging callouts, stickers, and merchandise. The strong texture and dense stroke color help it stand out at display sizes, where the rough edges and handmade details remain readable and intentional.
The tone is bold and mischievous, combining a friendly handmade feel with a gritty, poster-like energy. Its textured edges and irregularities read as informal and expressive, suggesting spontaneity and a DIY attitude rather than polish.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-painted or marker-lettered signage in a compact, forceful style. The irregular contours and textured stroke edges appear intentional, aiming for an energetic, imperfect look that feels human and attention-grabbing.
The uppercase set feels more blocky and sign-like, while the lowercase stays compact and bouncy, helping create strong word shapes in short phrases. Numerals follow the same brushy construction with simplified forms and a consistent roughened edge, keeping the set cohesive.
