A wide, geometric outline face with monoline contours and a consistent inner inline that creates a double-stroke, hollow look. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle curves and straight segments with generous width and open counters, keeping the shapes legible even as outlines. Corners are generally softened, terminals are clean and squared-off, and diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) stay crisp without calligraphic modulation. The rhythm is even and mechanical, with simple, uniform spacing behavior and clear differentiation in the numerals.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and signage where the outline and inline detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for packaging or event graphics that benefit from a retro or neon-like aesthetic. For long text or small sizes, the open outline construction may require careful contrast and background control to maintain clarity.
The overall tone feels retro-futuristic and upbeat, like signage or arcade-era graphics rendered as neon tubing. The double-outline detail adds a lively, dimensional sparkle that reads as playful and attention-seeking rather than formal. It conveys a clean, engineered personality with a light, airy presence.
The design appears intended as a bold display outline with a built-in inline accent, balancing geometric clarity with decorative flair. Its wide proportions and streamlined construction suggest a focus on high-impact, scalable lettering for modern-retro visual identities and graphic-led typography.
The interior inline is close to the outer contour, producing a compact “channel” that becomes more pronounced at larger sizes. Round glyphs (O, Q, 8, 0) emphasize the font’s smooth geometry, while the outline-only construction gives a transparent, layered effect that can interact strongly with background color and imagery.
