A slanted, wide display face built from angular, chamfered forms and mostly straight segments. Letterforms are drawn as a hollow outline with repeated inner contour lines that create a striped, inline-like rhythm through the strokes. Curves are minimized into faceted corners, giving counters a squarish, octagonal feel; diagonals are crisp and consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The construction reads monolinear and geometric, with a compact, tall lowercase proportion and an overall forward-leaning, energetic stance.
Best suited for display settings where the striped outline detail can be appreciated: headlines, poster titles, logotypes, and packaging or label moments that want a technical retro accent. It can also work for gaming or event graphics and sporty wordmarks, especially when used at medium-to-large sizes with generous spacing.
The layered outlines and sharp geometry evoke retro-futuristic signage and arcade-era graphics, with a mechanical, high-energy tone. It feels bold in personality without relying on heavy fill, leaning into speed, motion, and a slightly edgy, technical character.
The design appears intended to deliver a dynamic, futuristic display look by combining a geometric italic skeleton with a hollow, multi-line inline treatment. The goal is strong visual impact and motion-driven styling rather than neutral text readability.
The repeated inner lines are prominent at larger sizes and create a vibrating, optical texture in longer text, especially where tight corners stack (e.g., E, S, 8). The faceted terminals and consistent slant help maintain cohesion across the set, while the hollow construction keeps the overall color relatively light on the page.
