A compact, display-focused sans with a heavy outer silhouette and a consistent inline channel running through the strokes, creating a carved, double-stroked effect. Forms are largely geometric with rounded corners and occasional angular, chiseled terminals, giving the letters a structured but lively rhythm. Curves are clean and symmetrical (notably in O/C/G), while verticals dominate and counters stay relatively open despite the dense styling. The numerals and capitals share a steady, uniform construction, with small stylistic quirks that keep the set expressive rather than strictly utilitarian.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and signage where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging titles and short, punchy copy that benefits from a strong vintage display voice rather than extended reading.
The inline treatment and streamlined geometry evoke vintage signage and interwar-era show lettering, reading as confident, decorative, and slightly whimsical. It carries a theatrical, poster-like energy that feels at home in retro or nightlife contexts while remaining crisp and graphic.
Designed to deliver a bold sign-painting and marquee-like look through an inline cut that adds dimensionality without relying on shading. The goal appears to be high impact and strong stylistic character for display typography, with a consistent decorative motif across letters and figures.
Spacing and letterfit appear intentionally tight and compact, which amplifies the poster impact at larger sizes. The inline channel is visually consistent across glyphs, helping long lines of text maintain a cohesive stripe-like texture.
