Author's note

Oomph by David Kerkhoff is a free decorative display font with broad, rounded letters, a heavy outline, and a battered interior texture. The uneven wear gives each character a scraped, photocopied quality. Bulging forms and tight joins keep the lettering loud and comic rather than industrial.

Youth-oriented entertainment and streetwear brands can use its rough humor for posters, T-shirts, and packaging. It also fits game graphics and unruly music artwork. The chipped surfaces can echo distressed illustrations, sticker art, or scuffed print textures across those projects.
