A heavy, geometric sans with rounded bowls and an internal inline cut that runs through many strokes, creating a carved, double-stroke effect. The letterforms are generally broad with clean, low-contrast construction and smooth curves, while straighter glyphs (E, F, T, I) emphasize verticality. The inline treatment is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing distinct negative channels inside stems and curved strokes that stay legible at display sizes.
Best suited to posters, headlines, and branding where the inline detail can read clearly—such as event graphics, storefront signage, packaging fronts, and short logotypes. It performs especially well in large sizes and high-contrast color pairings that highlight the interior channels.
The inline carving and broad, rounded geometry give the face a distinctly vintage, stage-poster feel with a touch of glamour. It reads as decorative and attention-seeking, suggesting early 20th-century signage and entertainment ephemera while staying crisp and orderly.
Likely designed as a statement display sans that borrows from vintage inline lettering, prioritizing graphic punch and a distinctive internal cut over text-setting neutrality. The consistent geometry and repeated inline motif aim to deliver instant recognizability across titles and brand marks.
Spacing appears intentionally open and airy for a display face, letting the internal cutouts remain clear. Curved glyphs (O, Q, C, G, 6, 8, 9) showcase the strongest personality, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) keep a sharp, graphic rhythm without introducing noticeable contrast changes.
