A slab-serif display face built from clean outline contours, giving each letter a hollow, open interior. The forms are upright and fairly broad, with squared, bracketed slabs and mostly monoline stroke behavior translated into consistent contour thickness. Curves are smooth and roomy (notably in C, O, S), while joints and terminals stay crisp and rectangular, producing a sturdy, poster-like rhythm. Lowercase shows traditional, readable shapes with simple construction and open counters, and the lining numerals follow the same outlined, collegiate structure.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, storefront or event signage, and logo wordmarks where an outlined slab-serif look is desired. It also fits apparel graphics and badges, where the open counters and collegiate structure reproduce well and pair naturally with solid fills, strokes, or layering effects.
The outlined construction and slab-serif skeleton create a classic campus/letterman feel with a light, airy presence. It reads as nostalgic and friendly rather than formal, evoking old signage, team apparel, and mid-century advertising styles.
Designed to deliver a classic slab-serif silhouette in an outline-only treatment, emphasizing bold structure while keeping the overall tone light and airy. The goal appears to be a versatile display style that feels traditional and familiar, with enough openness for decorative treatments and large-format use.
Because the design is contour-only, color and scale strongly affect legibility: it shines at larger sizes where the interior whitespace and double-line structure can be appreciated. The spacing appears generous, reinforcing the open, banner-ready texture in the sample text.
