A casual, hand-drawn text face with brush-like strokes and visibly irregular edges. Letterforms show subtle wobble and uneven pressure, creating small flares, tapered terminals, and occasional rough joins. Proportions vary slightly from glyph to glyph, with a lively rhythm and somewhat inconsistent bowls and counters that reinforce an analog, ink-on-paper feel. Numerals follow the same informal, drawn character, with open shapes and modest stroke modulation.
Works well for display applications where a handmade, imperfect texture is desirable—such as posters, packaging, café or market-style branding, book covers, and short headlines. It can also suit brief captions or pull quotes when a casual, analog tone is needed, but the irregular edges are best showcased at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels personable and crafty, like quick signage or notes made with a brush pen. Its roughened texture and playful irregularity suggest a friendly, slightly gritty charm rather than polished formality.
Likely drawn to emulate quick brush lettering with a worn, ink-drag texture, prioritizing warmth and character over strict uniformity. The design aims to feel human and tactile, adding informal personality to otherwise plain typographic layouts.
Capitals read as simple, legible skeletons with handmade quirks, while lowercase includes compact forms and occasional long descenders that add motion in text. The texture is consistent across the set, giving paragraphs a lightly distressed, printed-by-hand presence.
