A heavy, geometric sans with rounded corners and a distinctive carved inline that runs through the strokes, creating a layered, hollowed effect. Letterforms are constructed from broad, even strokes with minimal modulation, combining squared geometry with softened curves in bowls and terminals. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangular shapes, and diagonals (as in V, W, X, Y) are sturdy and clean, giving the set a compact, engineered rhythm. Numerals match the same rounded-rectangular construction and maintain strong silhouette clarity at display sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, logos, posters, and packaging where the carved inline can read clearly and contribute to the overall graphic character. It also fits sports branding, arcade or synth-leaning visuals, and signage-style compositions that benefit from bold silhouettes and a decorative interior accent. For longer text or small sizes, the internal linework may become less distinct, so larger sizes are preferred.
The inline carving and chunky geometry give the face a confident, retro-futuristic voice that reads as sporty and arcade-adjacent. It feels energetic and assertive without becoming aggressive, balancing playful styling with a structured, technical finish. The overall tone suggests motion, signage, and bold branding where graphic impact is the priority.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through stout geometric forms while adding a signature look via a consistent inline cut. It aims to evoke a retro display aesthetic with a modern, engineered cleanliness, making the font immediately recognizable in branding contexts.
The inline detail is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a strong dimensional/striped impression that becomes more prominent as size increases. The shapes favor clear, simple joins and broad curves, which helps maintain legibility despite the decorative interior line. Spacing appears display-oriented, with sturdy forms that hold their presence in short words and headlines.
