A geometric sans with tall, narrow proportions and a clean, low-contrast stroke. Many capitals use an inline construction—parallel interior strokes that create a striped, hollowed effect—while the lowercase and figures are mostly solid, giving the design a mixed display/text rhythm. Curves are smooth and circular (notably in C, O, Q), terminals are crisp, and joins stay simple and monolinear. Overall spacing reads open and airy, with short lowercase proportions relative to the capitals and a steady, upright stance.
Best suited to display roles where the inline capitals can carry personality—posters, headlines, signage, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for short UI labels or captions when set with restraint, but the stylized uppercase treatment is most effective at larger sizes.
The inline capitals evoke classic Art Deco and early 20th‑century signage, giving the face a refined, theatrical feel. The combination of sleek geometry and decorative striping suggests sophistication and a slightly nostalgic, poster-like tone rather than a purely utilitarian voice.
This font appears designed to blend a modern geometric sans foundation with a decorative inline uppercase, providing instant period flavor while keeping overall letterforms simple and legible. The goal seems to be a versatile titling face that can feel both clean and ornamental depending on casing and scale.
The decorative treatment is most prominent in uppercase forms, which will draw attention in mixed-case settings and create strong hierarchy. The figures appear straightforward and readable, pairing well with the more stylized caps for headlines and titling systems.
