Inline Ebpo 1 is a regular weight, narrow, medium contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Refinery' by Kimmy Design (names referenced only for comparison).

A condensed, geometric sans with monolinear construction and an octagonal, chamfered approach to curves and corners. Strokes are opened by a consistent inline cut running through the letterforms, producing a hollowed, technical look while keeping the overall silhouette crisp. Bowls and counters tend toward squared/rounded-rectangle geometry, terminals are mostly flat, and diagonal joins are sharp and deliberate. Spacing is fairly tight and the rhythm is compact, with clean, uniform stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, logotypes, packaging, and signage where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also works well for tech-themed UI mockups, product labeling, and numeric-heavy applications such as model names or scoreboard-style graphics, especially at medium to large sizes.
The inline carving and chamfered geometry give the font a utilitarian, engineered tone—suggesting instrumentation, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. It feels precise and technical rather than warm, with a display-forward personality that reads like a schematic or neon tube inset into metal.
The design appears intended to blend a compact, engineered skeleton with an inset inline to evoke machined lettering or illuminated channel forms. Its consistent chamfers and geometric counters prioritize a controlled, futuristic aesthetic over conventional text neutrality.
The inline treatment remains prominent even at smaller sizes, creating a light-in-the-middle effect that can reduce perceived weight in long text. The condensed proportions and squared counters emphasize a disciplined, modular texture, especially in all-caps settings and numeric strings.
