A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a crisp inline detail that runs through the main strokes, creating a layered, cut-in look. Strokes are largely monoline with rounded corners and smooth curves; counters are generous and the overall color is dense despite the internal linework. Uppercase forms feel sturdy and poster-like, while the lowercase stays compact and clean with simple, single-storey constructions where applicable. Numerals are similarly robust and highly legible, with the inline treatment consistently applied across curved and straight strokes.
Best suited to large sizes where the inline detail can be appreciated—headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging titles. It can also work effectively for signage and short callouts where high impact and quick recognition are more important than long-form readability.
The inline carving gives the face a classic display energy reminiscent of vintage signage and athletic lettering. Its strong silhouette reads confident and upbeat, with a slightly playful character that comes from the rounded geometry and graphic, two-tone illusion. Overall it conveys a bold, attention-grabbing tone suited to branding and headline-driven design.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold display sans that feels familiar and vintage while adding visual interest through a consistent inline cut. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and legibility at distance, with decorative interior linework to increase personality without introducing high contrast or intricate detailing.
The internal inline is generally centered within strokes, producing a clear double-stripe effect on verticals and a concentric feel in rounded letters like O and Q. Joins and terminals remain clean and regular, supporting a tidy rhythm in text despite the decorative interior detail.
