A heavy, geometric sans with an inline channel running through each stroke, creating a layered, double-line effect. Strokes are largely monoline with low modulation, and terminals are clean and squared-off while curves stay round and even. Proportions are straightforward and legible, with open apertures and a steady spacing rhythm that keeps the texture consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
It performs best in headlines, posters, packaging, and logo-style wordmarks where the inline detail can be appreciated. The outlined/inline construction also suits signage, event graphics, apparel, and social media titles, especially when a retro or marquee-like feel is desired. For small text, the interior linework may lose clarity, so larger sizes and ample spacing are preferable.
The inline cut gives the face a classic sign-painting and vintage display energy, reminiscent of outlined athletic lettering and illuminated marquee forms. Its bold presence reads friendly and attention-forward rather than formal, with a clean, graphic finish.
This typeface is designed to turn simple, sturdy letterforms into attention-grabbing display shapes by carving a consistent inline channel through a heavy stroke. The overall construction favors clean geometry and uniform rhythm, aiming for immediate impact and a recognizable, decorative silhouette at a glance.
Counters are generally open and rounded, with smooth curves on C, G, O, and S and strong, simple diagonals on A, V, W, X, and Y. Numerals follow the same heavy, decorated construction, keeping a consistent visual color across letters and figures.
