A bold, rounded sans with solid strokes that are split by a consistent inner inline, creating a carved, double-stroke look through most stems and bowls. Curves are generously circular and terminals read as blunt and softly finished, giving the letters a friendly, slightly inflated silhouette. Uppercase forms are simple and geometric, while the lowercase keeps straightforward constructions with single-storey shapes (notably a and g) and compact joins. Numerals are clear and open, with the inline detail following the main contours to emphasize rhythm and stroke direction.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where the inline detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short callouts, labels, and signage that want a bold, retro-flavored voice without resorting to script lettering.
The inline treatment and chunky geometry evoke a retro sign-painting and display-lettering mood, balancing sturdiness with a playful, crafted character. It feels attention-grabbing and energetic, with a lightly imperfect, poster-ready presence that reads as decorative rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a sturdy, friendly sans foundation enhanced with an engraved inline for visual depth and vintage flair. It prioritizes impact and character in larger text, using consistent internal detailing to create a cohesive decorative system across letters and numerals.
The inner line is slightly irregular in places, which adds a hand-made texture and helps prevent the heavy strokes from feeling flat. Counters remain fairly open despite the decoration, supporting legibility at larger sizes, while the inline detail becomes the main personality cue and benefits from generous sizing and spacing.
