A geometric sans with open, hollowed letterforms and a consistent inline detail running through the strokes. The construction is largely monoline and low-modulation, with rounded bowls and smooth curves in characters like C, O, and S balanced by crisp, straight-sided forms in E, F, and Z. Uppercase proportions feel broad and stable, while the lowercase keeps a clean, modern rhythm with single-storey a and g and a simple, open e. Numerals follow the same inline/outlined logic, staying legible while maintaining a decorative, drawn-line presence.
Best suited for display typography where the hollow inline effect can read clearly—headlines, poster titles, branding wordmarks, packaging fronts, and signage. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when given enough size and spacing to preserve the internal line detail.
The inline carving and hollow build evoke classic marquee and sign-lettering, giving the font a poised, glamorous tone with a distinctly retro edge. Its light, airy interiors read as refined and architectural rather than heavy or rustic, suggesting a stylish, nightlife-adjacent mood.
The design appears intended to deliver a decorative inline look within a disciplined geometric framework—combining the clarity of a sans with the sparkle of outlined, sign-inspired letterforms for high-impact display use.
The inline detailing creates multiple parallel lines in many strokes, which amplifies sparkle at display sizes but can visually soften fine joins in dense settings. Curves remain consistently rounded, and terminals are generally clean and unflared, keeping the overall voice modern despite the vintage cues.
