A heavy, geometric sans with rounded corners and mostly uniform stroke weight. Each glyph is built from a solid exterior shape with a narrow inner inline channel that tracks the contours, creating a double-line/engraved effect. Counters are generally open and circular to oval, terminals are blunt, and joints are clean with minimal modulation. Uppercase forms feel broad and stable, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, single-storey construction where applicable, keeping texture even and highly graphic at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short display copy where the inline detailing can be appreciated—posters, packaging fronts, storefront-style signage, and bold brand marks. It also works well for event titles and merch graphics where a retro, high-contrast-in-shape look is desired (without relying on stroke contrast).
The inline carving and chunky silhouettes evoke vintage signage and mid-century display lettering, giving the type a confident, upbeat tone. It reads as energetic and attention-grabbing, with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry despite the strong weight.
Designed to deliver maximum presence through wide, rounded block forms while adding character via a carved inline that suggests dimensionality and craftsmanship. The overall intention appears to be a decorative display face that remains legible and structured while providing a distinctive interior detail.
The inline detail adds strong internal rhythm and a sense of depth that becomes a key feature at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes the inner channel may visually fill in depending on output conditions. Numerals and capitals are especially emblematic, with simple, iconic shapes that emphasize clarity and impact.
