A rough, brush-drawn display face with irregular contours and visibly textured interiors. Strokes alternate between thick pools of ink and thin, dry-brush streaks, creating a lively, broken rhythm and occasional hollow highlights within letterforms. Shapes are mostly upright and simply constructed, with rounded bowls and blunt terminals that feel cut by a loaded marker or brush. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an intentionally unrefined, hand-rendered look while keeping counters open enough to read at moderate sizes.
Best used for short, attention-grabbing text such as headlines, posters, album art, and event or nightlife promotion where texture can carry the visual voice. It can add a handcrafted edge to packaging, labels, and social graphics, especially when paired with cleaner supporting type. For readability, it performs strongest at medium to large sizes where the rough detailing is legible without overwhelming the shapes.
The overall tone is gritty and handmade, with a mischievous, street-level energy. Its uneven ink texture and scratchy edges suggest spontaneity and attitude—more zine and poster than polished editorial. It can read as playful or slightly ominous depending on color and context, making it well-suited to bold, expressive messaging.
The design appears intended to emulate expressive brush lettering and imperfect ink coverage, delivering a deliberately distressed, analog feel. Its goal is impact and personality over refinement, providing a quick way to inject grit and handmade character into display typography.
Uppercase forms feel chunky and poster-forward, while lowercase maintains the same rough texture with simpler, single-storey constructions. Numerals are similarly brushy and slightly inconsistent, matching the alphabet’s irregular baseline and stroke behavior. The distressed texture is integral to the design and becomes more pronounced as size increases.
