A geometric inline display face built from a thick outer contour paired with a consistent inner line, producing a double-stroked outline effect. Curves are broadly rounded (notably in O/C/G and the bowls of B/P/R), while terminals are clean and mostly squared-off, keeping the drawing crisp and even. Proportions lean wide with generous counters, and the alphabet mixes circular construction with simplified, angular joins in letters like M, N, V, W, and X. Numerals follow the same logic, with streamlined forms and the same parallel inner stroke for a cohesive, poster-ready rhythm.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing settings such as headlines, event posters, storefront signage, and brand marks where the inline outline can read as a graphic motif. It also works well for packaging and labels that want a retro, showcard feel, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the internal line detail remains clear.
The overall tone evokes vintage signage and marquee lettering, with a neon-tube or double-line sign vibe. It feels upbeat and theatrical, balancing nostalgic glamour with a friendly, approachable softness from the rounded geometry.
The design appears intended to translate classic double-line sign lettering into a consistent, geometric system that reads instantly as decorative. Its simplified shapes and steady inline rhythm prioritize visual character and pattern over neutrality, aiming for high-impact display use.
The double-line treatment stays highly consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving the font a strong patterning effect in text. Lowercase forms are simplified and highly stylized (single-storey a and g, rounded e, compact r), reinforcing its role as a decorative display face rather than a text workhorse.
