A heavy, hand-drawn print style with compact proportions and chunky strokes. Letterforms are built from brush-like marks with visibly rough, torn edges and occasional ink buildup, giving a textured silhouette rather than clean curves. Shapes are mostly upright with rounded corners and simplified counters, and the overall rhythm is slightly irregular, as if written quickly with a loaded marker or dry brush. Widths vary by glyph, and spacing feels natural rather than mechanically uniform.
Works best for short, high-impact copy such as posters, headlines, product labels, social graphics, and event promotions where texture is an asset. It can also suit playful branding elements and casual signage, especially when paired with a simpler text face for longer reading.
The texture and uneven stroke edges give the font an energetic, crafty tone that reads as friendly and approachable. It feels informal and expressive—more like painted signage or a DIY poster than polished editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver bold readability with a distinctly handmade, brush-textured character. It prioritizes personality and visual impact over strict geometric consistency, aiming for a lively, human feel in display typography.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and attention-grabbing, while lowercase keeps the same chunky construction for a consistent voice. The rough perimeter texture is a defining feature and will be most visible at display sizes; at smaller sizes it may visually fill in and read more like a solid blob of black.
