A heavy, geometric sans with rounded corners and a pronounced inline cut running through each stroke, creating a crisp, sign-painted look. Curves are broad and even, counters are open, and stroke endings tend toward softened, slightly beveled terminals rather than sharp cuts. Uppercase forms are sturdy and fairly uniform, while the lowercase is simpler and more buoyant, with single-storey a and g and compact, rounded bowls. Numerals follow the same chunky construction, with clear interior spaces and the inline detail staying consistent across curved and straight segments.
Best suited for large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and storefront-style signage where the inline detail can be appreciated. It can also work well in logos and packaging systems that want a bold retro or athletic tone, but is less ideal for long passages at small sizes due to the dense stroke weight and decorative interior line.
The inline carving and chunky proportions give the face a retro display energy—confident, fun, and attention-grabbing. It reads as friendly rather than severe, with a sporty, headline-forward voice that suits upbeat branding and nostalgic themes.
Designed to deliver maximum impact through thick, rounded geometry enhanced by an inline accent that adds depth and ornament without introducing contrast. The construction prioritizes clarity and consistency across caps, lowercase, and numerals for cohesive display typography.
The inline detail is centered and consistent, producing a layered, dimensional effect that remains visible at display sizes. The overall rhythm is steady and geometric, with slightly condensed inner counters from the thick stroke weight, so it benefits from generous sizing and spacing when used in text blocks.
