A geometric sans with rounded corners and a monolinear construction, drawn with a prominent inline stripe that splits the strokes into layered bands. Curves are smooth and circular (notably in O/C/G and the lowercase bowls), while straight segments stay clean and steady, giving the alphabet a consistent, engineered rhythm. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, and the overall proportions feel expansive with generous counters, helping the inline detailing remain legible even in complex shapes like B, S, and 8. Numerals and caps share the same modular logic, with the inline bands following contours and maintaining even spacing.
Best suited for headlines and short display copy where the inline carving can be appreciated, such as posters, packaging, signage, and logo wordmarks. It can work for subheads and larger UI or title treatments, but the decorative striping may become busy in long passages or at small sizes.
The inline striping and geometric proportions give the face a retro-futurist, sign-painter meets arcade tone. It reads as energetic and decorative rather than neutral, with a crisp, graphic presence that feels at home in branded, entertainment-oriented settings.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, graphic display voice by combining a sturdy geometric skeleton with a carved inline motif. The consistent banding suggests an intention to evoke classic outlined lettering and retro signage while keeping a clean, modern construction.
The inline detailing creates a strong secondary rhythm across words, producing a layered “track” effect that becomes more pronounced at larger sizes. Rounded joins and consistent stroke behavior keep the decorative carving from feeling irregular, though the stacked bands can visually densify in tight text settings.
