An outlined, inline slab-serif design built from monoline contours with a second inner contour that creates a hollow, double-stroke effect. The letterforms are upright and fairly open, with sturdy slab terminals and softly rounded joins that keep the geometry friendly rather than sharp. Curves are smooth and consistent (notably in C, G, O, and S), while verticals stay straight and even, producing a steady rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Numerals follow the same double-outline construction, reading clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, branding marks, and packaging where the outlined construction can read crisply. It also works well for signage and short promotional copy, especially when you want a vintage or collegiate flavor. For smaller text, the thin outline structure may require ample size and contrast for comfortable reading.
The double-outline construction and slab-serif structure evoke a retro sign-painting and collegiate headline feel. It comes across as confident and attention-getting, with a light, airy presence created by the hollow interiors. Overall, the tone is classic and approachable rather than formal or severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold slab-serif silhouette while keeping the overall color light through an outline/inline build. It prioritizes strong recognition and decorative impact, using consistent double contours to create a distinctive, retro display voice.
Counters and apertures remain relatively generous despite the outline treatment, helping characters stay distinct in words. The inner contour is consistently inset, giving the face a clean, engineered look; spacing feels comfortable in the sample text, supporting short lines and headings.
