Letterform structure
of Boho Thick.
Boho Thick is a chunky retro-groovy swashed brush script with a wet, heavy stroke: letters connect in one thick ribbon, the caps open into wide retro swashes and the terminals end in a loaded brush blob. The weight is the point, so it needs size to avoid filling the counters, and the swashes widen the word. It needs roughly 28 mm for the swash and the brush blob to read, and it is best in one saturated ink on cream and kraft, or a single deep colour on a pale board where the thick stroke stays solid.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Boho Thick’s stroke geometry.
Vinyl-bar identity, sign panel and record sleeve
A chunky groovy brush script reads as a seventies record sleeve rather than a modern bar logo, which is what a vinyl bar wants above its shelves. The thick stroke holds at 50 mm on a panel, and one ink prints the sleeve and the card from one separation.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Sign panel 1200 x 400 mm, word 120 mm with 15 mm swash clearance, 30 mm margins. Sleeve 300 x 300 mm, word 70 mm, 20 mm margins. Card 85 x 55 mm, word 16 mm, 5 mm margins.
Pre-production check
At 16 mm on the card the brush blobs merge into the following letter and the name reads as a ribbon. Keep the card at 22 mm or use the plain cut, and print one card before the order.
Coffee-shop poster, cup print and bag stamp
A thick groovy script reads as a hand-painted coffee sign rather than a corporate logo, which is what a small roastery wants in autumn. The wet stroke holds at 90 mm on a poster, and one ink prints the poster, the cup and the bag stamp in a single order.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Poster A3, word 90 mm with 12 mm swash clearance, details 28 mm, 18 mm margins. Cup print 70 x 50 mm, word 14 mm, 5 mm margins. Bag stamp 90 x 50 mm, word 16 mm, 6 mm margins.
Pre-production check
On a 70 mm cup panel at 14 mm the counters fill and the word prints as a solid brush slab. Raise cup type to 20 mm, and check one printed cup before the order.
Festival poster, stage banner and tote print
A chunky swashed script suits a summer festival because the thick ribbon reads from a distance in strong light. The swashes fill a poster at 130 mm, and one ink prints the poster and the tote from the same separation.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Poster A2, word 130 mm with 18 mm swash clearance, details 40 mm, 20 mm margins. Stage banner 3000 x 800 mm, word 260 mm, 60 mm safe edge. Tote print 300 x 300 mm, word 70 mm, 25 mm margins.
Pre-production check
Screen printed on a tote at 70 mm the brush blob bridges into the next letter and the design reads as a stain. Use the plain cut on fabric, and wash one sample before the order.
