A rounded sans with heavy, mostly monolinear strokes and softened terminals. Each letterform features a consistent inline cut that tracks the contours, creating a hollowed, double-line effect within otherwise solid shapes. Curves are broad and geometric, counters are open, and joins stay clean, producing an even, high-impact texture. The lowercase maintains simple, single-storey constructions with clear bowls and stems, while the numerals are straightforward and legible with matching inner striping.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging fronts, and brand marks where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also fits signage and playful editorial callouts, especially when you want a bold silhouette with added visual texture.
The inline detailing gives the face a classic display feel reminiscent of mid-century sign painting and poster lettering. Its chunky forms and soft geometry read as upbeat and approachable, balancing bold presence with a lighter, decorative interior rhythm. Overall it feels lively, nostalgic, and designed to catch the eye without becoming harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, friendly sans structure enhanced by an inline treatment that adds decoration and perceived depth. It prioritizes clarity of silhouette while using the carved interior line to create a distinctive, vintage-leaning personality for attention-grabbing typography.
The interior stripe remains consistent across straight and curved strokes, which helps the alphabet feel cohesive in both caps and lowercase. The effect is strong at headline sizes, where the carved line is clearly visible and adds depth-like dimension to the letterforms.
