Grunge heavy sans display
Lucky Grunge
Lucky Grunge is a heavy grunge display in black on cream: wide condensed caps with chipped edges, speckled interiors and a slightly rough baseline, set over a dry orange brush swipe with a banner caption, so the pair reads as a stencilled crate label.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Lucky Grunge.
The two words are stacked and the drawing is a heavy sans with the wear built in: the stems are wide, the counters narrow, and the surfaces are eaten by chips at a consistent scale, which is what makes the two lines read as one plate rather than two textures. The damage stays away from the counters' middle, so the word still resolves at a distance, and the spacing is tight enough that the pair forms a block. The composition places the block over a brush stroke in a second colour, which lifts it off the background without an outline, and a small banner beneath carries the category. The palette is two inks on cream, and the only other element is a thin tracked line above, so the texture carries the page.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Lucky Grunge’s stroke geometry.
Label for a craft brewery
A grunge display reads as a stamped crate label, and the texture hides the small registration variations of a short run printed on uncoated stock.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 70 by 100 mm label: the beer at 18 pt, the style in a 7 pt sans, and the volume at 6 pt. Keep 5 mm inside the die, print one ink on a kraft stock, and let the chips read as part of the paper.
Pre-production check
Check the 18 pt name on kraft, where the chips can turn into noise; use the cleaner cut at that size. Confirm the 6 pt volume reads on the shelf and that the label survives a chilled cabinet.
Shirt graphic for a skate party
A grunge display prints as one screen and looks worn on fabric, which suits a skate party better than a clean geometric mark.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 260 mm chest graphic: the phrase at 60 mm cap height, the date at 16 mm, and one ink on a light shirt. Keep the thinnest chip at 2.5 mm so the screen holds and place the graphic 80 mm below the collar.
Pre-production check
Check the screen at actual mesh, where a chip under 2 mm fills; open the texture for fabric. Wash-test one shirt and confirm the date stays legible after five cycles.
Poster for a music workshop
A grunge face signals a loud, informal workshop and reads from across a corridor, and the single ink keeps a school's printing cheap.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A3 print: the headline at 90 mm cap height, the details in a 12 mm sans, and a brush rule beneath. Keep 25 mm margins and print one colour plus a dry brush swatch on a coloured sheet.
Pre-production check
Check the A3 at two metres, where the chips can reduce legibility; keep the letters clean at that size. Confirm the 12 mm details read at arm's length and that the brush swatch does not cross the text block.

Very heavy rounded blocks with tiny counters and diagonal slots in D and O
Hard Block
Hard Block is a very heavy rounded display in which the capitals sit almost solid, the counters shrink to small pills and the D and O carry a long diagonal slot instead of an open bowl, so two stacked words read as one compact block.
