A geometric, monolinear sans with rounded bowls and clean, near-circular forms, distinguished by consistent carved details within the strokes. Many glyphs feature a slim internal cut or notch—often appearing as a small diamond or teardrop-shaped opening—plus occasional inline-like separations on vertical stems, creating a hollowed, engraved effect. Uppercase shapes read broad and stable with simple construction, while the lowercase is similarly streamlined with open counters and a straightforward, single-storey feel. Numerals follow the same decorative logic, mixing smooth curves with crisp terminals and occasional inner cutouts, giving the set a cohesive, display-oriented texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where the carved interior detailing can be appreciated. It can work well for boutique packaging, event titles, and signage, and is most effective when given enough size and contrast for the internal cutouts to remain clear.
The internal cutouts and incised linework give the face a theatrical, vintage flavor reminiscent of marquees, title cards, and stylized signage. It feels playful and slightly mysterious—more about personality and sparkle than neutrality—while staying orderly enough to read in short phrases.
The design appears intended as a decorative, modern-geometric display face that uses consistent internal carving to add depth and an engraved, luminous look. The goal seems to be a distinctive silhouette and a repeatable ornamental motif that stays uniform across letters and numbers.
The decorative openings repeat across rounds (C/O/Q and many lowercase bowls), producing a recognizable rhythm in text. Spacing appears comfortable and the shapes stay upright and composed, but the distinctive inner detailing becomes the primary visual signal, especially at larger sizes.
