A heavy slab-serif display face with broad proportions and a carved inline running through the main strokes. Letterforms are built from chunky, low-contrast shapes with squared, bracketless serifs and softened corners, giving the silhouettes a sturdy, poster-like feel. The inline is consistently placed to read as a cut-through highlight, and many glyphs show deep counters and compact joins that keep interiors legible at large sizes. Overall spacing and rhythm favor headline impact over text neutrality, with slightly varied widths across the set.
Best used at display sizes where the inline cut and chunky serifs can read clearly. It works well for posters, event titles, storefront-style signage, retro-themed branding, and packaging that benefits from a bold, decorative voice.
The combination of weight, slabs, and inline carving evokes vintage signage and showbill typography. It feels theatrical and upbeat—suited to attention-grabbing, nostalgic messages rather than quiet editorial work.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with a classic slab foundation, enhanced by an inline treatment that suggests engraving or illuminated sign detailing. Its proportions and simplified contrast prioritize clarity and personality in large-format typography.
Round letters like O and Q emphasize the concentric inline effect, while angular forms like V, W, and Y read as sharply chiseled wedges. Numerals follow the same display logic, with bold silhouettes and internal inline detailing that reinforces the engraved look.
