Author's note

Oei by David Kerkhoff and Stephanie Oei is a free handwritten brush script with broad, uneven strokes and an easygoing personal manner. The letters shift between rounded loops and quick angular joins, with changing stroke widths that preserve the movement of ink drawn rapidly by hand.

This relaxed handwriting can suit both artisan food packaging and independent music posters, since each benefits from lettering that feels immediate and unpolished. Personal invitations and casual merchandise are equally credible settings. In editorial design, it can turn a magazine cover line or an informal feature opener into something resembling a contributor's own handwritten note.
