A geometric display face built from rectilinear strokes with squared terminals and an inset inline that creates a double-stroke, hollowed effect. Letterforms are tall and compact, with tight apertures, boxed counters, and frequent right-angle turns that emphasize a constructed, modular skeleton. Curves are minimized or faceted, giving round characters like O and Q a squared, octagonal feel. The inline is consistently offset within the strokes, producing a crisp, two-track rhythm that stays legible at larger sizes and reads as a structured outline at smaller sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks where the inline detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for themed signage, packaging, and UI/game titles that benefit from a retro-tech aesthetic. Avoid very small text sizes or dense paragraph settings where the inner inline may visually fill in.
The overall tone feels retro-technological and game-like, with a strong arcade and signage energy. Its hard corners and inset detailing suggest machinery, circuitry, and architectural drafting, lending a confident, engineered personality.
The design appears intended to deliver a striking, structured display voice by combining a squared, modular sans skeleton with an inset inline that adds depth and a dimensional, neon-tube/engraved feel. The consistent rectilinear system suggests an aim for strong visual branding and high-impact titling rather than neutral text typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same angular logic, with the lowercase retaining a compact, schematic look rather than a handwritten one. Numerals follow the same boxed construction, supporting titling and scoreboard-style applications where uniform, geometric shapes are desirable.
