A compact, hand-rendered print style with brush-like strokes and slightly irregular contours. Letterforms show a lively mix of rounded bowls and sharp, wedge-like terminals, with occasional ink-swell and taper suggesting quick marker or brush pressure. Proportions are tight and tall, with narrow counters and modest spacing that creates an animated, slightly bouncy rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same informal construction, maintaining a consistent hand-drawn texture across the set.
Works best in display applications where a bold, informal voice is needed—such as posters, event titles, packaging callouts, social graphics, and sticker-style designs. It can also serve as a distinctive accent font for short subheads or pull quotes when paired with a calmer text face.
The tone is spirited and approachable, with a comic, DIY character that feels human and spontaneous rather than polished. Its narrow, punchy shapes give it an energetic voice suited to lighthearted messaging and expressive emphasis.
Likely designed to capture the immediacy of hand-lettered brush print while staying legible and consistent enough for repeated use. The narrow build and emphatic stroke weight suggest an intent to deliver strong presence in tight spaces without losing its casual, drawn-by-hand charm.
Stroke endings frequently resolve into chiseled points or blunt cuts, and verticals can lean subtly within individual glyphs, reinforcing the handmade quality. The overall color on the page is strong and dark, producing high impact in short lines and display settings.
