Smudged Alphabet

by Tom Raaijmakers · Website

Smudged Alphabet is a scratchy, thin handwritten face from Tom Raaijmakers that looks like it was scrawled with a nearly dry pen on rough paper. The letterforms are messy and irregular in a way that feels genuinely uncontrolled, with visible inconsistencies in stroke weight and baseline. It carries a raw, artistic energy that works for posters, zine layouts, and editorial pieces where polish would actually get in the way.
