Updike
Bold, jagged caps and lowercase cut with rough diagonal strokes
Updike is a bold sans serif built entirely from sharp, uneven diagonal cuts - every straight edge looks hand-torn or sliced with a blade rather than drawn with a ruler. Both the uppercase and lowercase sets keep that same rough, angular energy, so headlines stay legible without losing the raw edge.
That torn-paper quality makes Updike a natural fit for punk and grunge show flyers, streetwear logos, or any project that wants to look scrappy and handmade rather than polished. Pair it with a plain, quiet body font (something like a simple monospace or basic sans) so the display type stays the loudest thing on the page.
