A geometric sans with rounded corners and monolinear construction, drawn as a black outline with interior inline channels that create a double/striped stroke effect. Curves are broad and smooth, terminals tend to be softly squared, and bowls are roomy, giving the forms an open, airy silhouette. The caps are clean and symmetrical, while lowercase keeps simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g) with consistent rhythm; the overall spacing reads even and display-oriented, with distinctive, decorative internal striping maintained across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where the inline effect can be appreciated: headlines, posters, brand marks, event graphics, and packaging. It also works well for signage-inspired compositions and short UI/hero text, but is less appropriate for long passages where the internal detailing may add visual noise.
The inline detailing and rounded geometry evoke illuminated signage and early 20th‑century display lettering, creating a retro-futurist, nightlife feel. It balances a tidy, engineered presence with a lighthearted decorative character, reading as both stylish and approachable.
The design appears intended to translate the look of outlined neon or inline display lettering into a consistent, modern glyph set—prioritizing bold presence, decorative rhythm, and strong silhouette over neutrality.
The inline channels vary in how they wrap around curves and joints, producing a lively “tubing” impression in letters like S, U, and O, and giving figures a particularly sign-painterly flair. Simpler glyphs (I, l, 1) remain legible through the strong outline, while complex joins (M, W, R, K) showcase the font’s decorative striping most clearly.
