A monoline outline sans with geometric construction and a consistent double-line contour that reads like a hollow stroke. Curves are broadly rounded and smooth, terminals are softly finished, and joins stay clean with minimal modulation, giving the forms an even, technical rhythm. Proportions lean slightly condensed in some letters with generous counters, while lowercase shapes remain simple and open; numerals follow the same streamlined, rounded geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited for display sizes such as headlines, logos, posters, and packaging where the outline construction can be appreciated. It can also work for signage or UI accents when used with ample size and contrast, as the open-line structure benefits from clear reproduction.
The outlined, double-stroked construction evokes neon tubing and classic display lettering, producing a retro-modern, architectural feel. Its light, open interiors and tidy geometry create an elegant, airy tone that feels stylish rather than heavy or aggressive.
Likely designed to deliver a sleek outline aesthetic with a refined geometric backbone, combining the clarity of a modern sans with a decorative, neon-like presence. The goal appears to be high visual character without relying on heavy stroke weight, keeping compositions light and contemporary.
The font’s character is driven by the parallel contour lines and consistent spacing between them, which makes curves (O, C, G, 0) especially prominent and gives straight-sided letters a precise, drafted look. The outline treatment is uniform across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping long sample text stay visually consistent while maintaining a distinctive, see-through texture.
