Fake Serif

Fake Serif is a brush handwriting typeface designed by Khurasan, whose real name is Syaf Rizal. First published on DaFont in January 2019, the font playfully references serif typography conventions through casual brushwork execution. The result is a typeface that occupies the space between structured serif design and spontaneous hand lettering.

The letterforms feature uneven baselines, variable stroke widths, and organic brush textures that give each character a natural, hand-painted quality. Despite its casual appearance, the design maintains consistent letter proportions and spacing that keep text readable. The brush influence adds warmth and personality that rigid digital fonts cannot replicate.

Fake Serif is effective for social media content, informal branding, blog headers, and creative packaging projects. Its unique blend of serif-inspired structure and brush casualness gives it a distinctive voice that works well in lifestyle, food, and fashion-related design contexts. The font is free for both personal and commercial use.
