A geometric display sans built from heavy, squared forms with rounded corners and a consistent inset inline that traces the interior of each stroke. Curves are largely interpreted as softened rectangles and octagonal turns, producing a crisp, modular rhythm and sturdy silhouettes. Terminals tend to be flat and squared, while counters are compact and rectangular, giving the design a dense, sign-like presence. The inline treatment is uniform across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a layered, dimensional look without relying on contrast.
Best suited for large-size applications where the inset inline can remain clearly visible: headlines, branding marks, event posters, esports/sports identities, apparel graphics, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or signage-style callouts when used with ample size and spacing.
The overall tone feels retro-futuristic and athletic, reminiscent of arcade marquees, scoreboard lettering, and industrial labeling. The interior line adds a schematic, engineered character that reads as energetic and slightly aggressive, but still clean and controlled.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-impact geometric voice with a built-in inline detail that adds depth and a fabricated, emblematic feel. Its consistent modular construction suggests a focus on strong recognizability and visual punch in display settings.
Some glyphs show purposeful, stylized quirks—such as angular joins and occasional extended strokes (notably in forms like Q and select lowercase)—that emphasize a custom display personality over neutral text behavior. The numerals maintain the same squared geometry and inset-line motif, helping sets of digits feel cohesive in headings and badges.
