Author's note

Project Y by David Kerkhoff is a free distorted, eroded display font with broad, forceful letters and a heavily scraped surface. Irregular breaks, rough edges, and compressed patches of wear give the forms the look of ink dragged across damaged printing equipment.

As a battered industrial title, it suits gig posters, action-game graphics, and streetwear branding. On record packaging, the lettering can become part of the printed texture itself, closer to a stamped factory mark than neutral type.
