A monolinear, geometric sans with rounded terminals and simplified, friendly proportions. Each stroke is perforated by evenly spaced circular counters, creating a consistent dotted cutout pattern through stems, bowls, and diagonals. Curves are smooth and fairly circular (notably in C, O, Q, and numerals), while diagonals are straight and clean, producing a crisp rhythm despite the ornamental interior detail. Spacing reads open and readable in text, with the perforations remaining regular and aligned along the stroke paths.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display text where the perforated strokes can be appreciated clearly—posters, event collateral, packaging, and playful branding systems. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want a patterned, cutout look without sacrificing basic legibility.
The repeated pinhole cutouts give the face a lighthearted, crafted feel, reminiscent of marquee, paper-cut, or punched materials. It carries a playful retro energy that feels festive and approachable rather than formal, turning plain copy into a patterned graphic texture.
This design appears intended to deliver a distinctive hollowed, perforated-stroke aesthetic while keeping the underlying skeleton straightforward and readable. The goal is clearly decorative impact and a consistent texture across the alphabet, making the type function as both lettering and pattern.
The perforation motif is the dominant visual signature and stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping the design feel cohesive. The interior holes add sparkle at display sizes, while at smaller sizes they may merge visually into a textured stroke, shifting the emphasis from letterform to pattern.
