Art Brut — "raw art" — is Jean Dubuffet's 1945 manifesto against cultural refinement: art made by psychiatric patients, prisoners, and self-taught isolates who never entered the gallery system. This design system channels that radical anti-aesthetic through earth-pigment palettes, hand-scratched textures, and obsessive horror-vacui density on warm bone-cream rag-paper.

Every surface feels hand-worked — charcoal scratches, ochre buildup, crude figure silhouettes filling margins. Typography pairs period serifs with raw hand-lettering. Nothing is polished; everything is immediate.
