A heavy, geometric sans with a continuous inline cut running through each stroke, creating a crisp double/outlined effect. Strokes are monolinear and broadly rounded in curves, with squared terminals and clean joins that keep counters open and legible. Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy, while lowercase shows friendly, slightly simplified shapes with single-storey a and g and a plain, upright construction overall. Numerals are similarly robust, with the inline detail following the forms consistently to emphasize rhythm and structure in large sizes.
Best used at display sizes where the inline detail can remain clear—headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging benefit from its strong silhouette and decorative interior line. It can also work well for merchandise graphics and bold editorial callouts where a retro, graphic emphasis is desired.
The inline detailing and bold silhouettes give the face a retro sign-paint and vintage display feel, reading as energetic and fun rather than formal. Its layered look adds a sense of motion and impact, lending a cheerful, attention-grabbing tone suited to expressive headlines.
The design appears intended to provide a high-impact, decorative sans that stays structurally simple while adding visual interest through a consistent inline cut. It prioritizes bold presence and quick recognition, making it suited to branding and titling where personality and contrast against a background are important.
The internal inline is evenly spaced and maintained across straight and curved strokes, producing a strong “double-line” presence even at a glance. Round letters like O, Q, and G showcase the font’s smooth geometry, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) stay sharp and graphic, reinforcing a poster-like character.
