A high-contrast display sans with alternating thick vertical strokes and razor-thin connecting elements. Many glyphs feature an inline/fluted construction where vertical stems are split by a narrow white channel, creating a striped, engraved look. Bowls and curves are broadly geometric with oval counters, while joins and terminals stay crisp and clean, leaning on straight sides and simplified curves rather than traditional serif structure. Proportions vary noticeably across letters, with wide rounds (C, O, Q) and tighter, more vertical forms elsewhere, producing a lively rhythm in text.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairline connections and inline striping remain clear. It works well for headlines, poster titles, logotypes, and branding systems that want a vintage-meets-glamour voice, and it can add distinctive character to packaging and event materials.
The overall tone feels Art Deco and stage-ready, mixing elegance with a slightly eccentric, showcard flair. The striped stems and sharp contrast read as glamorous and attention-seeking, suggesting nightlife, poster culture, and period-inspired branding rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a decorative, high-impact sans for display typography, using extreme contrast and fluted stems to create a signature vertical shimmer. It prioritizes personality and period styling over low-key text utility, aiming for immediate recognition in titles and branding.
In the sample text the thin connectors and interior striping become a defining texture, especially in stacked words and dense lines, where the vertical rhythm dominates. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and stylized construction, reinforcing the display intent across lettering and figures.
