A monoline, geometric sans with rounded terminals and a distinctive inline treatment: many strokes are split into paired parallel lines, and several curved letters feature a vertical cut-out that creates a hollowed, stencil-like interruption. Bowls and counters are generally open and spacious, with simple circular and D-shaped constructions (notably in C/G/O/Q) and softly squared shoulders in places. Diagonals (A, K, M, N, V, W, X, Y) are clean and slightly stylized, giving the alphabet a rhythmic, display-first texture. Numerals follow the same split-stroke logic, with clear, streamlined forms suited to larger sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and signage where its inline cut-outs can act as a graphic feature. It can also work for short UI labels or event titles at larger sizes, especially in retro, nightlife, or entertainment contexts.
The overall tone feels Art Deco–influenced and retro-futurist, reminiscent of marquee lettering, neon tubing, and early modernist sign design. The cut-outs and doubled strokes add a lively, ornamental sparkle that reads as upbeat and theatrical rather than strictly utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean geometric skeleton embellished with hollowed and inline details, creating a distinctive display voice without heavy contrast or complex calligraphic cues. The consistent cut-out motif suggests a focus on eye-catching, sign-like typography that remains orderly and repeatable across the character set.
Because many glyphs rely on internal gaps and paired strokes, legibility can soften at small sizes or in dense settings; the font’s character becomes most apparent when the inline and cut-out details have room to breathe. The sample text shows a consistent decorative rhythm across upper- and lowercase, with a cohesive approach to verticals and curves.
