A geometric sans built from clean outline contours with an inner inline that creates a double-stroke effect. Strokes are largely monoline with rounded joins and terminals, giving curves a smooth, tube-like feel while straight segments stay crisp and architectural. Capitals are broad and simplified, with circular forms (C, O, Q) drawn as near-perfect rings; diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y) emphasize symmetry and sharp angles. Lowercase keeps the same construction with single-storey a and g, open apertures, and compact bowls; figures are similarly outlined, with a rounded 0 and simple, linear 1.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and storefront-style signage where the outline/inline detail can read clearly. It can also work for short brand marks and packaging callouts, especially when a retro or nightlife aesthetic is desired.
The outlined, inline construction reads like marquee tubing or neon signage, projecting a lively retro tone with strong display energy. Its geometric discipline and consistent rhythm also evoke classic Art Deco title lettering and mid-century poster graphics.
The font appears designed to provide a decorative outline sans with a built-in inline accent, balancing geometric clarity with a distinctive, sign-inspired personality for attention-grabbing display typography.
Because the design relies on outlines and interior counters, it benefits from generous sizing and sufficient contrast against the background. The double-stroke interior line can visually fill in at smaller sizes or in busy layouts, while at larger sizes it becomes a distinctive decorative feature.
