A heavy slab-serif display face with compact proportions and rounded corners. The primary black forms are interrupted by consistent cut-out details: a thin internal inline and small notches at terminals and joins, creating a carved, hollowed look. An offset shadow layer sits behind the main shapes, producing a poster-like stacked effect and a strong sense of depth. Curves are smooth and full, counters are generous, and spacing is built for impact rather than text economy.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where the shadowed, hollowed detailing can be appreciated—posters, event graphics, packaging, storefront or wayfinding-style signage, and energetic sports or entertainment branding. It will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes and in layouts that can accommodate its strong internal detailing and depth.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, with a nostalgic showcard feel. The inline cutouts and shadow give it a lively, slightly playful energy that reads as vintage signage, sports titling, and headline-driven advertising.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence through layered depth and carved-in detailing, emulating vintage display lettering while staying clean and consistent for modern graphic use. Its combination of slab structure, inline cutouts, and offset shadow suggests a focus on theatrical titling and attention-grabbing branding.
Uppercase forms feel more architectural and blocky, while lowercase introduces more rounded bowls and compact descenders, keeping the texture dense. Numerals follow the same depth and inline treatment, maintaining consistency across the set; the offset shadow remains a defining feature even at larger sizes.
