A hand-drawn display face with thick, high-contrast strokes and visibly irregular outlines. The letterforms have a marker/brush-ink feel, with wobbling contours, occasional interior wobble lines, and slightly inconsistent stroke buildup that creates a textured, sketch-like fill. Proportions are loose and lively, with varied widths, rounded bowls, and simple geometric bases that are intentionally imperfect. Terminals are blunt or softly rounded, counters are open, and overall spacing feels informal rather than mechanically even.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where texture and personality are more important than pristine clarity. It works well for music and nightlife materials, DIY editorial layouts (zines), playful branding, packaging accents, and social graphics that benefit from an imperfect, hand-inked voice.
The font conveys a spirited, DIY energy—part doodled poster lettering, part rough print. Its uneven ink texture and jittery curves create a friendly but rebellious tone that reads as handcrafted, spontaneous, and slightly chaotic in a deliberate way.
The design appears intended to simulate bold hand-lettering made with a marker or brush pen, preserving the natural inconsistencies of pressure, retracing, and ink drag. Its purpose is to inject an organic, distressed character into display typography while remaining legible at larger sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same rough, inked construction, helping the style stay consistent across mixed-case text. Numerals match the hand-rendered texture and carry the same wobbly outlines, making the set cohesive for short, expressive typesetting.
