raw

Raw, by Niels Bonnevie, is a free handwritten font with a scraped, nervous line that feels closer to scrawl than polished penmanship. The letters look dragged out in dry ink, with uneven strokes, blunt joins, and a restless vertical emphasis that gives the alphabet a raw zine-era, post-punk edge.

It fits music flyers, poster headlines, record sleeves, indie film title cards, and rough branding where a free font should feel immediate rather than tidy. Use it for short cover lines, stamped-looking monograms, or confrontational drop caps, especially when you want the letters to read like a quick mark made by hand.
