A heavy, geometric sans with rounded corners and soft curves, built from broad strokes that are interrupted by a clean inline cut running through most letterforms. The construction reads as monoline in spirit, with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation, while the inline creates a double-outline/hollowed impression inside the black mass. Forms are mostly circular and squared-off in a modernist way (notably in O/C/G), with simplified joins and sturdy terminals. Numerals and caps are large, blocky, and evenly weighted, producing a strong, stable rhythm in all-caps settings.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, event posters, branding marks, storefront-style signage, and packaging where its inline detail can be appreciated. It also works well for short emphatic phrases, badges, and title treatments that benefit from a bold, graphic voice.
The inline detailing gives the face a classic sign-painting and varsity-adjacent flavor, balancing boldness with a lighter, decorative interior. It feels energetic and upbeat, with a graphic, poster-ready presence that suggests mid-century to late-20th-century display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary sans foundation with added visual interest via an internal inline, creating a built-in highlight effect without relying on contrast or serifs. The goal is impactful readability at large sizes with a distinctive, decorative finish for branding and attention-grabbing typography.
The inline is consistently spaced and acts as the primary stylistic signature, maintaining legibility while adding texture. Round letters remain open and clean at larger sizes, and the overall silhouette stays simple and highly recognizable, making it especially effective where the inline can be clearly resolved.
