A monoline sans with rounded, tube-like construction and a distinctive inline/double-stroke effect created by parallel contours. Curves are smooth and geometric, with frequent use of open apertures and softly squared bends. Terminals are consistently rounded, and many glyphs show layered stroke bands at horizontals and bowls, giving a lightweight, outlined feel without strong contrast. Overall rhythm is airy and slightly irregular due to variable glyph widths and generous internal spacing.
Best suited for short display settings where the inline tubing effect can be appreciated—headlines, posters, brand marks, event graphics, and stylized signage. It can also work for packaging or UI accents when used sparingly, but its decorative stroke treatment makes it less ideal for extended body text.
The font reads as retro-futurist and playful, evoking sci‑fi signage, arcade graphics, and neon tubing. Its rounded geometry softens the technical feel, keeping the tone friendly and whimsical rather than stark or industrial.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a clean rounded sans through a neon/inline construction, creating a recognizable, futuristic texture while keeping letterforms simple and legible at larger sizes.
In the sample text, the inline banding becomes a key texture, especially in rounded letters and numerals, producing a subtle shimmer-like pattern. The single-storey forms and open shapes prioritize stylization over neutrality, and the distinctive construction becomes most prominent at display sizes.
