A rounded outline sans with uniform stroke and a consistent inner counter line that creates a hollow, double-line effect. Letterforms are largely geometric with softened corners, simple terminals, and open bowls; curves are smooth and the outlines stay even, giving a clean, airy color on the page. Proportions are straightforward and readable, with compact curves in letters like C and S, a symmetrical O, and a clear, open-digit set where the counters and outlines remain well separated at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, and signage where the hollow outline can read clearly. It also fits logos and packaging that want a clean, contemporary-retro accent, especially when paired with solid text faces for supporting copy.
The outlined construction and rounded geometry give the font a lighthearted, retro-leaning tone that feels friendly and approachable. Its hollow presence reads as decorative without becoming overly ornate, making it feel upbeat and slightly toy-like while still staying orderly and legible.
The design appears intended to provide a distinctive outline look that stays friendly and legible through rounded, geometric construction and consistent stroke behavior. It aims to deliver a decorative, airy presence for attention-grabbing applications without relying on heavy weight or complex detailing.
Because the design relies on outline separation rather than filled strokes, it gains clarity as size increases; the double-line structure becomes a key visual feature in headlines and short phrases. The overall rhythm is even and consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, helping it maintain a cohesive look in mixed-case settings.
