A monoline, geometric sans with an outlined construction and a consistent inline detail that creates a double-stroke feel. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and smooth arcs, while verticals stay straight and even, giving the design a crisp, engineered rhythm. Terminals are clean and mostly unmodulated, and counters remain open and legible despite the decorative interior line. Numerals follow the same linear logic, with rounded forms and simple, open shapes that keep the set cohesive.
This font is best suited to headlines, titles, and short statements where the inline/outline construction can be appreciated. It works well for branding, packaging, poster work, and signage that aims for a retro-elegant look, and it can add a distinctive decorative edge to wordmarks and editorial display typography.
The overall tone reads refined and decorative, with a strong vintage-modern flavor reminiscent of early 20th-century display lettering. Its airy, see-through strokes feel sophisticated and light on the page, projecting a polished, upscale mood rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears intended as a decorative display sans that combines geometric clarity with an inline ornamental effect. Its goal is to deliver a sleek, vintage-leaning personality while keeping letterforms clean and readable in larger sizes.
The inline detailing is consistently applied across caps, lowercase, and figures, so words form an even texture in longer lines of text. Round letters (O, Q, C, G) emphasize the font’s geometric core, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) maintain a sharp, streamlined look that suits display settings.
