A compact, hand-drawn print style with narrow proportions and dense, sturdy strokes. Letterforms show irregular, chiseled edges and slightly wobbly verticals, with occasional wedge-like terminals and uneven curves that feel sketched rather than constructed. Spacing is somewhat inconsistent by design, creating a lively rhythm, while counters stay fairly open for a dark, punchy texture at text sizes.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, display headlines, packaging, and book or album covers where personality is more important than typographic neutrality. It can work for brief blurbs or captions at larger sizes, especially when you want an intentionally rough, handmade look.
The overall tone is quirky and mischievous, with a homemade, slightly spooky energy. Its roughened edges and uneven rhythm suggest informal storytelling—more zine or poster than polished editorial typography.
The design appears intended to capture a bold marker/brush-pen feel with intentionally imperfect contours and narrow, space-saving forms. Its consistent roughness and lively rhythm prioritize character and impact over refinement, aiming for an expressive, handcrafted display voice.
Uppercase shapes lean toward angular silhouettes, while lowercase introduces more rounded, handwritten movement; together they create a mixed, characterful texture. Numerals share the same irregular stroke endings and compact stance, keeping the set visually cohesive.
