A monoline outline face built from squared forms with softened, rounded corners. Strokes maintain an even thickness while leaving the interiors open, producing a clean hollow silhouette. The geometry favors straight verticals and horizontals with occasional diagonal joins, creating a slightly modular rhythm and consistent spacing from glyph to glyph. Counters are often suggested with small interior cut-ins or inset shapes, giving characters a compact, engineered look.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, logos, and bold packaging where the outline effect can be appreciated. It also fits themes like arcade, sci‑fi, and industrial graphics, and works well when paired with solid fills, color overlays, or strokes to amplify the hollow structure.
The overall tone feels retro-futurist and game-like, with a sporty, arcade signage energy. Its hollow construction reads as technical and schematic, while the rounded corners keep it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, geometric display voice using an outline-only construction that stays crisp and consistent. Its squared framework and rounded terminals suggest a goal of combining technical precision with friendly, contemporary appeal.
Capitals are broad and block-oriented, and the lowercase follows the same squared vocabulary rather than a calligraphic or humanist model, which reinforces a unified, constructed feel. Numerals match the same outline logic and appear designed for display clarity, with distinctive interior detailing on figures like 8 and 9.
