A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and tightly controlled curves. The defining feature is a consistent inline cut running through the main strokes, creating a carved, hollowed look while keeping the outer silhouette solid and chunky. Terminals are generally blunt with squared-off joins, and counters are compact, giving the letters a dense, poster-ready texture. The uppercase reads more rigid and architectural, while the lowercase keeps a simple, single-storey construction that maintains the same bold rhythm and inline detailing.
Best suited for short display settings where the inline carving can read clearly: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging titles, apparel graphics, and energetic sports or event branding. It can also work for signage or social graphics when set at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The inline carving adds a lively, engineered sparkle that feels retro and display-driven, like stamped metal, scoreboard lettering, or classic sign paint adapted to digital type. Overall tone is confident and attention-grabbing, with a slightly playful edge from the decorative inner linework.
Likely designed as a decorative display sans that borrows the solidity of a bold grotesk/geometrics while adding an inline incision for instant character. The goal appears to be high impact with a built-in sense of depth and texture, without relying on outlines or shadows.
The inline detail is most visible on verticals and diagonals, producing a subtle striped/shaded effect in repeated strokes and a strong sense of movement in letters like V, W, and X. Because the interior linework competes with small counters, the face is visually busier at smaller sizes and becomes cleaner and more striking as it scales up.
