An outlined slab-serif design with monoline contour strokes and no filled interior, giving each letter a crisp, architectural silhouette. The serifs are sturdy and mostly bracketed, with squared terminals and a steady, even rhythm across the set. Proportions are fairly traditional: round letters are broad and open, verticals feel stable, and spacing reads even in text. Numerals follow the same outline construction with clear, straightforward shapes and consistent stroke behavior.
Well-suited for display contexts such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and signage where an outlined, collegiate slab-serif look is desired. It can also work effectively for apparel graphics and packaging accents, especially when paired with a solid companion font for body copy.
The overall tone is collegiate and institutional, reminiscent of varsity lettering and traditional signage rendered as a light, airy outline. Its clean construction and slab-serifs lend a confident, established feel, while the hollow drawing keeps it approachable and graphic rather than heavy or imposing.
The font appears intended to translate a classic slab-serif/varsity sensibility into a contemporary outline treatment, prioritizing recognizable letterforms and consistent contour geometry for bold, graphic applications.
Because the design is built from thin contours, it reads best when given sufficient size or contrast against the background. In longer text the outline effect becomes more decorative than typographic, while at display sizes the slab details and counters stay distinct.
