A geometric sans with monoline construction and rounded terminals, built from solid strokes that are split by a consistent inline channel. Curves are broadly circular (notably in C, G, O, Q, and the numerals), while straight-sided forms like E, F, H, N, and Z keep crisp, even proportions. The inline detail reads as a clean double-stripe effect across most stems and bowls, giving the letters a layered, dimensional feel without added contrast. Spacing appears comfortable in text samples, and the overall rhythm stays uniform and schematic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and branding where the inline detail can be appreciated. It can also work for signage and packaging that aims for a retro or decorative voice, especially when set with generous size and spacing.
The inline carving and simplified geometry give a distinctly vintage, Art Deco-leaning tone with a showy, marquee-like presence. It feels upbeat and graphic, suggesting neon tubing or engraved signage, and reads as stylish rather than serious.
Likely intended as a decorative geometric sans that adds instant period flavor through an inline treatment, while staying clean and legible enough for short blocks of copy. The consistent construction suggests a focus on repeatable shapes and strong graphic impact over text-face neutrality.
The design relies on the inline detail for personality, so it looks most convincing at medium to large sizes where the inner channel remains clearly visible. Rounded joins and consistent stroke logic help it keep a cohesive, system-like look across both caps and lowercase.
