Regress by Mark Richardson is a hand-drawn display font that channels the casual, slightly worn aesthetic of mid-1990s poster design. The design sits comfortably in that nostalgic territory without feeling like a strict reproduction. Each letterform carries soft, uneven edges that read as intentionally imperfect rather than sloppy, making it feel like someone sketched the whole thing by hand and meant to keep the personality intact.

This font works particularly well for retro band merchandise and album cover artwork, where that honest handmade quality becomes an asset rather than a limitation. Indie game packaging and DIY zine covers benefit from the casual confidence Regress brings to the table. Thrift store signage and vintage clothing labels feel more honest when set in this typeface. Skateboard graphics highlight the irregular edges that prevent the work from looking too polished or corporate. The letterforms maintain decent legibility despite their organic character, which matters when you're layering text over imagery or printing small.

The soft ruggedness of Regress appeals to designers who want their work to feel personal. Whether you're recreating a 1990s aesthetic or building something contemporary that borrows from that era, this font delivers the right kind of rough around the edges. You can find Regress on Creative Fabrica and add it to your library.
