A heavy, squared sans with rounded corners and an inline cut that runs through most strokes, creating a carved, double-line effect inside otherwise solid letterforms. Curves are built from softened rectangles, giving bowls and counters a squarish geometry (notably in C, G, O, Q, and the numerals). Stems are thick and fairly consistent, with tight apertures and compact counters; joins are sturdy and blocklike, while diagonals in letters like A, K, V, W, X, and Y stay sharp and assertive. The inline detail is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, adding texture and a slightly mechanical rhythm without becoming delicate at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where the inline detail can be appreciated: headlines, event posters, bold branding, packaging fronts, and wayfinding/signage with a vintage or industrial slant. It can also work for sports-themed graphics and title treatments where a dense, impactful texture is desired.
The inline carving and robust shapes evoke a retro-industrial tone—part scoreboard, part signage—delivering a confident, punchy voice. It reads as energetic and utilitarian, with a sporty, poster-ready attitude that feels engineered rather than calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a built-in decorative accent: an engineered inline that adds dimension and motion while preserving a sturdy, legible skeleton. Its squared, rounded construction suggests an aim toward versatile display typography that feels both retro and functional.
Spacing appears straightforward and the silhouette is strongly rectangular, helping words form a solid typographic block. The internal inline channels add visual interest and a sense of depth, but the tight counters suggest it will be most comfortable at larger sizes and in short-to-medium bursts of text.
