A slim, linear display face built from broken, hollowed strokes with frequent gaps and small, squared terminals. Many letters show an offset inner/secondary contour that reads as a subtle shadow, creating a doubled rhythm without adding weight. Curves are drawn as partial arcs rather than continuous bowls, and joins are often implied instead of closed, giving the alphabet a perforated, stenciled construction. Proportions are generally narrow with tall ascenders/descenders, and the figures follow the same segmented, cutout logic for a consistent set-wide texture.
Best suited to short display settings where its cutout shadow effect can be appreciated: posters, title cards, branding moments, album/cover art, and atmospheric packaging. It can also work for spooky or surreal themed graphics when used at larger sizes with generous tracking.
The overall tone is ghostly and atmospheric: light on the page, slightly unsettling, and intentionally imperfect. The shadowed cutouts add a cinematic, noir-like depth, while the broken outlines and angular notches introduce a quirky, handmade edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a lightweight shadowed outline look through hollow segments and offset detailing, trading continuous strokes for an airy, cutout silhouette. Its consistent interruptions and squared terminals suggest a deliberate display voice aimed at mood and texture rather than extended readability.
In longer text the repeated gaps and offset contours create a shimmering texture, so spacing and size become important for clarity. Diagonals (e.g., V/W/X/Y) emphasize thin, blade-like strokes, while rounded letters (C/G/O/Q) rely on open counters and interrupted curves, reinforcing the hollow motif.
