A condensed, geometric sans with outlined letterforms and a consistent inline channel running through the strokes, creating a double-line/track effect. Stems are largely monoline with rounded corners and smoothly drawn curves, giving the design a crisp, engineered rhythm. Capitals skew toward simple, modular construction (notably the straight-sided E/F/H and circular O/Q), while the lowercase keeps a compact, readable structure with a single-storey a and g and minimal calligraphic modulation. Numerals follow the same outlined treatment and remain open and legible at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, poster titles, branding marks, packaging callouts, and signage where the inline detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads or labels when set with generous spacing and sufficient size.
The inline outline treatment reads as vintage and showy, evoking marquee lettering, early modernist posters, and decorative signage. Its clean geometry keeps it from feeling overly ornate, balancing nostalgia with a straightforward, contemporary neatness.
The design appears intended to deliver a decorative, high-impact sans that feels classic and architectural, using an inline outline construction to add depth and sparkle without relying on heavy contrast or complex ornament.
Because the interior channels and outlines carry much of the character, the face is most effective when given enough size and contrast so the inline detail doesn’t visually fill in. The condensed proportions and open counters help it hold together in short words and stacked settings.
