A geometric, inline display face built from sharp, angular outlines with consistent stroke thickness and frequent doubled strokes that create a hollowed, “inline” effect. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, giving many forms a faceted, polygonal construction. The rhythm is crisp and regular, with open counters and simplified terminals; diagonals are prominent and joins are clean, producing a precise, engineered silhouette across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logotypes, and branding systems where the inline outline can be appreciated at larger sizes. It also works well for signage, packaging, and event graphics that benefit from a geometric, decorative voice rather than continuous-text readability.
The overall tone feels modernist and stylized, evoking Art Deco signage and early industrial geometry while also reading as sleek and futuristic. Its outlined, architectural construction lends an airy sophistication with a slightly dramatic, poster-like presence.
The design appears intended as a decorative, geometry-driven display font that merges inline outline construction with faceted letterforms to create a distinctive, retro-futurist texture. Its consistent stroke logic and angular simplification suggest a focus on stylized impact and graphic presence.
The inline treatment is especially noticeable on vertical stems and many bowls, creating a distinctive striped detail that increases sparkle at larger sizes. Some characters lean toward emblematic, sign-like shapes (notably the more polygonal rounds), which reinforces its decorative, display-first character.
