Author's note

Carole Alexandre, designed by Rodolfo Silva Santos of Tipografia em Massa, is a free brush script with tall, loosely drawn capitals. Uneven stroke widths, ragged edges, and slightly wandering shapes give the lettering the raw quality of painted signage.

It can create an urgent, handmade title for music posters, festival graphics, apparel, and independent publishing. The font is most convincing on posters, where its rough marks can become part of the artwork rather than polished display text.
