A heavy, wide, rounded sans with squared corners softened by generous radii and a consistent, carved inline running through each stroke. The letterforms are built from chunky, uniform-weight shapes with a clean outer contour and a narrow inner channel that creates a double-stroke, hollowed impression. Counters are compact and squarish, joins are sturdy, and terminals are mostly flat, giving the design a stable, sign-like silhouette. The overall rhythm is tight and compact in text, with strong verticals, broad horizontals, and clear geometric construction across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to large sizes where the inline detail can stay clean: headlines, posters, logo marks, team or event branding, packaging, and bold UI badges. It can also work for short bursts of copy in promotional graphics, but the compact counters and interior channel make it less ideal for long reading at small sizes.
The inline cut and inflated proportions evoke retro display lettering—part varsity, part arcade—while the crisp geometry keeps it feeling modern and engineered. It reads as confident and attention-seeking, with a playful, graphic edge that suits energetic branding.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through wide, rounded block forms while adding dimensionality and separation via a precise inline carving. It aims for a display voice that feels both nostalgic and contemporary, optimized for bold, graphic typography.
The inline remains consistently centered and evenly spaced, producing clear internal separation even in dense shapes like B, 8, and S. Lowercase forms retain the same blocky DNA as the caps, and the numerals are especially sign-forward, with prominent shapes and restrained interior space.
