Keywords: posters, packaging, labels, headlines, social graphics, handmade, playful, rustic, casual, crafty, hand-lettered look, organic texture, casual display, imperfect print, brushy, textured, inked, chunky, imperfect.
A hand-drawn, marker/brush-style sans with condensed proportions and lively, irregular stroke edges. Strokes show visible texture and slight wobble, with uneven terminals and occasional ink buildup that creates a worn, printed feel. Counters are generally open and rounded, while spacing and widths vary per glyph, reinforcing an organic rhythm. The lowercase is simple and friendly, with single-storey forms and compact bowls, and the numerals match the same rough, inked construction.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality and texture are desirable, such as posters, packaging, labels, event promotions, and social media graphics. It can also work for small blocks of copy when set with generous size and spacing, but it reads best when the distressed texture is allowed to remain a feature rather than a distraction.
The font feels informal and human, with a warm, crafty tone that suggests hand lettering and imperfect printing. Its rough edges and energetic shapes give it a playful, down-to-earth character rather than a polished or corporate voice.
Likely designed to emulate quick hand-painted or marker lettering with a deliberately worn edge, delivering an approachable, craft-forward look that stands out in display typography.
In longer text, the texture remains prominent and can visually “buzz,” especially where strokes thicken or fray at curves and joins. The overall impression is cohesive and intentional, with consistent roughness across caps, lowercase, and figures.
