A geometric outline typeface built from a consistent double-line contour that creates an inline, hollow effect. Forms are predominantly rounded-rectilinear, mixing straight stems with smooth, generous corner radii and near-circular bowls. Stroke modulation is minimal and even, with clean joins and a steady rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals; counters read open and airy due to the outlined construction. Terminals tend to be squared-off with softened corners, and diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y, Z) keep a crisp, engineered feel while remaining rounded at the bends.
This font is well suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and event graphics where its outlined structure can be showcased. It also works well for signage and packaging that aim for a clean, modern-tech or retro-futurist mood, especially when paired with solid sans text for body copy.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical with a distinct retro sci‑fi flavor, like signage from mid‑century modern and early digital aesthetics. Its hollow, inline construction gives it a lightweight, display-forward personality that can read as playful or sleek depending on color and background.
The design appears intended to deliver a streamlined, geometric sans with an outline/inline construction that emphasizes space, structure, and a drawn-with-a-pen or neon-tube sensibility. It prioritizes stylistic impact and a cohesive, engineered rhythm over dense text readability.
Legibility is best at larger sizes where the inner and outer contours stay distinct; at small sizes the outlined detail may visually merge. The rounded geometry and consistent contour spacing make it especially effective for high-contrast applications, layering, and treatments such as neon, stroke-only logos, or animated outlines.
