A chunky inline display with rounded, softened corners and a slightly irregular, hand-drawn feel. Strokes are monoline in impression, with a consistent internal cut/inline that tracks through stems and bowls to create a hollowed, sign-painter look. Proportions are compact with modest apertures and mostly rounded counters; curves are full and circular while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) keep a lively, slightly uneven rhythm. The lowercase mixes simple, single-storey forms (a, g) with tall ascenders and compact bowls, and the numerals are wide and rounded with the same carved-through detailing.
Best suited for display applications such as posters, packaging, logos/wordmarks, headlines, and playful merchandise graphics where the inline cut can be appreciated. It can work for short bursts of text in invitations or social graphics, but the interior detailing may become busy at small sizes or in dense paragraphs.
The inline carving and gently wobbly outlines give the face an upbeat, approachable personality—part vintage poster, part doodled marker lettering. It reads as informal and characterful, suited to designs that want warmth and visual bounce rather than strict precision.
Designed to provide a bold, friendly display voice with an engraved/inline effect that adds depth and novelty. The slightly handmade irregularity appears intentional, aiming for charm and a casual, retro-leaning tone rather than geometric neutrality.
The inline detail stays prominent at larger sizes and contributes a layered, outlined depth without relying on contrast. Overall spacing feels generous for a display style, helping the busy interior line remain legible in short words and headlines.
